Clinton Portis Loves Marko Mitchell

I remember this dude when MD. played his team in a bowl game. If I remember correctly he killed MD. But it's one thing to do it in practice. Let's see what he does in a game. Remember Tryon was having a great camp until he had to actually play in a game.

I remember being impressed when I looked at the incremental increase in his college numbers over 3 years as a starter, but I figured he would just get caught up in the training camp wash. Now, I'm not so sure. I think he's got a good shot to make the team.

Marko Mitchell might be the anti-Devin Thomas. Shame on you if you get that.

Seems like Trent Shelton is a pretty much a non-factor, huh?

I believe he's officially listed at 218LBS, but who knows for sure.

BTW, is it just me or does Fred Davis' neck and head look way to small for his body?

I always wanted a Rack. I always thought it would stretch your back out really good and loosen you up but they're so hard to find and take up a lot of space.

10:52:11 am QB Chase Daniel connected with WR Marko Mitchell on long TD pass during the 9-on-9. On the play, CB Kevin Barnes bit on a Daniel pump fake to leave Mitchell wide open.

Daniel to Mitchell is the future!!

That's awsome! Especially since it's only 10:45. What foresight you have.

If only I had remembered that training camp ended yesterday. :confused:

His route running must be exceptional with all these praises he is getting. You don't expect that from rookies. But lets be honest here, all this noise is in practice. He'll probably be a practice squad player.

I was trying to decide between Hackett and Mitchell.

Hackett knows the offense and has been decently productive WHEN healthy in the past, but that's the key, he could be seen as injury-prone.

Mitchell has size and many more years left without the injury risk. He was a big playmaker in college and is impressing in camp. It appears we got great value for taking him so late in the draft. Since he's so young and has more potential than Hackett, where we know what we'll get, I chose Mitchell.

Even after Moss is gone, if our future is Thomas, Kelly and Mitchell, is a great trio who could be producing for many years.

That would be awesome, but it only depends on their productions and if our FO decides to extend/resign them..

I'm going with Trent Shelton in a stunner

I picked Marko for the poll, seems to me if he goes on the practice squad another team very well may get him. Hackett would probably be available if we ended up needing him in a bind even if we cut him.

Hagans and Eloi have to be dramatic over the next few weeks I imagine to stay on the team.
