The legend continues to grow…Chase Reynolds the first one out #ramscamp
Quickly followed by Harkey and Bayer #ramscamp
Givens and Coach Smith making their way onto the field….at least Chris is trying to get better #ramscamp
A lot more guys out earlier than usual. ..tight ends already hitting the sled #ramscamp
Looking at Oline….early indications are no Saffold #ramscamp
Saffold spotted in a ball cap, word from some reported is he could play in regular season.#ramscamp
Alex Carrington and Donald getting some technique work from Coach Wauffle, knocking down the oline’s hands #ramscamp
Far field has special teams and near failed has both the Oline and Dline working on drills. Jenkins working on the field #ramscamp
I will try and get of Jenkins at some point….looks like he has a zoot suit on instead of shorts #ramscamp
And For Party and Moni Britt still flashing his abs #ramscamp
For the first time the Oline is not going to run the hill today #ramscamp
Saffold doing what he did Monday. All the stretching and warm up exercises…wonder if this isn’t them taking it easy on a vet #ramscamp
Matt Daniels whom I still hope makes the team doing stretching exercises in a ball cap #ramscamp
William Hayes only doing stretching also #ramscamp
Conrath hits the tackling dummy so hard it knocks out his mouth piece #ramscamp
Defense doing lots of angle drills and thud tackling type drills. Linebackers getting worked by Williams #ramscamp
Dbacks hit the sled…..TJ especially hits the sled….hard. Williams working them over pretty good #ramscamp
Williams…”if you’re avoiding contact you’re in the wrong place.” #ramscamp
Dbacks have to hit the sled then chase down a bouncing ball…Joyner and TJ hit the hardest #ramscamp
[Joyner] has the smoothest, quickest hip flip/transition since Jenkins rookie year #ramscamp
Dline doing a drill where they have to hindsight through 3 tackling dummies and then tomahawk a ball off another dummy #ramscamp
Saffold and Hayes doing some running and other drills on the very far artificial turf field #ramscamp
Frank Bush really working the linebackers on angles and warding off blocks…Williams taking a lot notes behind the drill #ramscamp
Qb’s and skill positions in the middle running deep outs and go patterns #ramscamp
Spied Laurinaitis for the first time with a hat on. I have not seen Brockers. #Ramscamp
It’s 11 on 11 time on the middle field. .Start off working on the run game #ramscamp
1st and 2nd string going 11 on 11. The rest doing skeleton passing drills on the other end #ramscamp
They are cycling wide receivers to the skeleton drill when their unit is in 11 on 11. Pettis faked Tru down the field on a hitch #ramscamp
Quick has leaned some lessons from somebody in how to use his shoulder to drive off the corner on a break #ramscamp
Emory Blake whom I like just an absolute crap pattern on an out..rookie corner knocked it away #ramscamp
11 on 11 is all run reps….Pettis running some great routes today…don’t forget him #ramscamp
Regular 11 on 11 opens up with a check down from Sam to Benny #ramscamp
Reverse to Austin…..defense gets kudos for staying home #ramscamp
Last two times I have been here Quick showed some old troubling traits. Not today…highpoint a back shoulder fade #ramscamp
Hill’s play action fakes are really smooth and he sells it well #ramscamp
Last series for the ones on offense not so good…Sam overthrown Bailey and Long looks a step low vs Quinn. #ramscamp
I know everyone looks slow vs Quinn but Long looked off the last 4-5 snaps #ramscamp
This year Chase Reynolds gets a carry….Mark it down #ramscamp
Now Austin Davis with the stare down into a deflection #ramscamp
Coach Cignetti on the neat field working the Qb’s footwork and drop….Gilbert still does not look right to me #ramscamp
Woodard still in a hat, just spied him #ramscamp
Zuerlein whom has not always kicked in practice getting a few more reps today #ramscamp
No one within five yards of Quick on a double move to the corner of the end zone #ramscamp
Sam just threw a deep pick but it looked like Cook either quit on the route or ran it wrong #ramscamp
Hurry up offense drill. Cunningham and Stacy getting a lot of work in the passing game #ramscamp
And back to Monday…defense jumping offside #ramscamp
And Gilbert would have been sacked…..feel like the reserve tackles may not be on the squad yet #ramscamp
Sean Hooey resorts to holding vs Michael Sam and still gets planted on his butt #ramscamp
Ray Ray blitzing off the edge a lot, really looks good in that role #ramscamp
And the reserve defensive line takes turns padding their resume vs Hooey #ramscamp
Pettis with a really good day today….highlight catch in the end zone #ramscamp
Bayer with a nice catch. He is still my choice for #4 TE #ramscamp
Bayer as a move TE or HBack releases really well and gets downfield quickly…not an inline guy but he can catch #ramscamp
Stretching and the third string taking extra reps with Austin #ramscamp

JT/Wagoner Tweets: Rhaney Carted Off with Knee Issue
====
Nick Wagoner @nwagoner
Fisher indicated no structural damage to Rhaney’s knee but an MRI would still be done soon.Also, rookie C Demetrius Rhaney suffered knee injury during FG drill today, was carted off. Fisher said early indication that he’d be OK.
Charges against LB Jo-Lonn Dunbar were indeed dropped. Dunbar, Fisher both pleased with that bit of news.
Rams CB Janoris Jenkins (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday. Fisher uncertain whether he’ll play this week.
Rams targeted midway through preseason to get Long back in games. Barring setback, looks like that will happen.
As expected, Jeff Fisher confirms that LT Jake Long won’t play this week. Also confirms plan is to play next week in Cleveland.
Snead accepted Seattle GM John Schneider’s challenge. He then challenged famous Rams fans Ty Burrell and Nelly.
=======
Jim Thomas @jthom1
Fisher on Bradford vs. Green Bay: “We’re going to play him a quarter maybe a little bit more.”
Newly signed TE Brad Smelley also made an impressive catch in traffic on a deep ball.
Emory Blake, by the way, made one of the best catches of the day on a long pass down the left sideline in double coverage.
At advertised, Rams put extra emphasis on the run game Thursday.
Longtime NFL QB Jeff Blake, now retired, was at Rams Park to watch his son WR Emory Blake practice.
Rams GM Les Snead took the plunge in ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. Snead in turn has challenged rapper Nelly & actor Ty Burrell (Modern Family).Both are huge Rams fans.
CB Janoris Jenkins (hamstring) practice Thursday. Fisher wasn’t definitive on whether he would play vs. Packers.
FIsher said CBs Trumaine Johnson and Brandon McGee, who were held out of New Orleans game will play vs. Green Bay.
Fisher says LT Jake Long will be held out until Cleveland game in Week 3 of preseason. All along Fisher had said team would point to. . .
Rookie C Demetrius Rhaney suffered knee injury blocking on FG unit during Thurs. practice. Jeff Fisher says he doesn’t think it’s serious. ..but Rhaney will undergo an MRI.
Demand up slightly for Rams tickets on the secondary market according to StubHub. Rams are 24th in sales this year after ranking 29th in ’13
Biggest demand for home game is Dallas (Sept. 21), followed by Denver (Nov. 16)
August 14, 2014 at 9:17 pm #4009znModeratorCoach Gregg very animated, watched the linebackers and DBacks drills a long time and very critical if it was not done to his liking.
I wonder … Bush is a recent hire, right? The LB coach? Is it possible Bush isn’t doing things quite like Wms wants them done?
August 14, 2014 at 9:31 pm #4011jimiramsboyParticipantWilliams spent an awful lot of time over there during their unit drills, more so than I would say any other individual unit

You said in particular they were working on getting off blocks?
August 14, 2014 at 9:48 pm #4015jimiramsboyParticipantTwo linebackers with blocking pads engage one linebacker who has to fight through the other two. They have driven those guys this week about taking the right angle toward tackling this week.

Interesting. Sounds like an interventionist fixer type.
BTw, from what you’ve seen, do you have a take on Barnes? Is he showing signs of stepping up over last year?
