Even that, however, can't duplicate game speed or conditions.
At the same time, it will probably be more helpful to work on it after minicamp and before Training Camp as it lets them be that much more prepared prior to the opening of camp.

A great deal of the running game and things like that are just the running backs instinct of where the holes are, and how to react to defenders.
As a receiver, the only instincts are basically how to get around getting bumped. After that, It's run your route crisp, recollect from film where you have to be, and know your QB.
I think you're right to assume QB/WR timing is the most important.
