    Camp Reports 2013 or Oh No, That Doesn't Look Good

    First practice underway, here is what seems worth Tweeting about.

    Alex Green, just prior to being cut, gets first team reps at HB. Possibly, an audition as prelude to trading him.

    Pete Dougherty ‏@PeteDougherty 1h
    Hayward n House passed physicals but r standing on side during warm ups. Not sure if they will practice, will update

    Wes Hodkiewicz ‏@WesHod 58m
    Personal observation but Johnny Jolly does appear lighter than OTAs

    >HE'S FOCUSED!

    Tom Silverstein ‏@TomSilverstein 58m
    Some of the players not practicing: Casey Hayward, Jamari Lattimore, Derrick Sherrod, Mike Neal, Sean Richardson, Chaz Powell\

    >WHO IS CHAZ POWELL? IS THIS LIKE SILVERSTEIN AND TRAMONTANA AGAIN?

    Wes Hodkiewicz ‏@WesHod 57m
    #Packers non participants: RB Harris, S Richardson, CB Hayward, CB House, S Powell, LB Lattimore, OL Tretter, Sherrod, DLs Neal and Worthy

    >THEY SHOULD JUST LIST THE PLAYERS WHO CAN ACTUALLY PLAY

    Tom Silverstein ‏@TomSilverstein 58m
    MD Jennings and Sam Shields starting in secondary.

    >THEY SHOULD JUST DO AWAY WITH THE DRAFT

        Jolly's been out of football for three years. Maybe he forgot how to strap it on.
        One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

            This was evident in his college highlight videos. Guy is very, very quick. Makes Pease look like lava flowing.

                        So Harris is not out for lung but knee. Neal has an abdomen and hamstring for Hayward. They are week to two weeks away.

                        House and Lattimore have illnesses. Powell has a foot (no timetable).
