BillsZone Training Camp Report 7/30/2008
Here we go. It's now Day 6 of the Buffalo Bills Training Camp. It's the day after the first night practice, so the team had an afternoon practice today and a morning walk-thru. The players worked out in full pads for the third day in a row and there was a some nice hits. They worked on a few special teams drills, including punt returns, blocking and field goals. The team also worked on the individual drills with their own units, 7-on-7 and the 11-on-11 full team drill, as well as some work in the red zone.
Just like last week, the players started out by working with their individual units. Then they worked on some special teams drills. Bobby April had the team practice covering and returning punts. The punt returners would receive a "punt" from the jugs machine and the drill was basically just to help the gunners out. Roscoe Parrish, Leodis McKelvin, and Fred Jackson were the return men. The drill was mainly for the gunners benefit and the punt returns did not go full strength. But there were a couple nice plays by each returner. Roscoe showed off his speed and ability as he ran down the field on a couple returns. McKelvin impressed me when he made a nice cut that avoided his gunners. He later felt a gunner coming his way on another punt return and ducked, the gunner flew right over him. The crowd the cheered for it. Fred Jackson showed some good return ability too as he dodged the gunners.

no, that's just what they do in the 7-on-7 drill. I think I got another one where they are doing the same thing to JP.
