Donald Penn looking bad in that running drill. If you can call what he’s doing ‘running’ LOL… McCoy look like he’s in beast mode!

Im not overthing anything, but it looks like Kyle Moore has really refined his body, he looks chiseled this year ready to fight for his job. Hes going to need to bring everything and then some to make the team this year.

WOW. McCoy looks in shape
Price… not so much, but understandable
June 30th, 2011 at 8:44 am
It looks like miller has lost weight as well
June 30th, 2011 at 8:46 am
Miller kinda looks like a giant Kimbo Slice in the bag drill

He has.

Joe,
Did Price look like that before the injury? If not, what are the expectations for his recovery? Not being able to run in June, after 7-8 months off, is not a good sign.

Nick P.:
Brian Price being able to go by the start of training camp, provided it starts on time, is dicey at best. He didn’t sound too confident. Really sad. Price is a good guy and no one blew up at training camp last year (before he fractured his pelvis) like Price did.
Joe wouldn’t be shocked if Price was put on the shelf for the season with a goal of getting healthy by 2012. Joe’s not basing that statement on any inside information. Just a hunch.

Thanks, Joe. Unfortunately, I think you’re right. If he can’t run in training camp he’ll never lose the weight enough to be effective in a 4-3. He’s making some 3-4 NT’s look small.

McCoy’s upper body looks more massive and at the same time more defined than last year. That’s great to see. Price looks fat and out of shape. Penn looks completely gassed from the sprints. Clayborn looks like he needs to hit the same workout routine that McCoy employed this offseason.
Awesome coverage Joe. Lovin’ it.

love it, Joe!
Could you do something though, so that when we click on the pics that we see them larger?

What’s up with Price and his “Back to the Future” shoes?
June 30th, 2011 at 5:59 pm
Although McCoy is looking more musclular, it seems like he lost a lot of weight. Does anyone else find it weird that Mccoy looks more like a DE then Clayborn?

This d-line is is soooo boom or bust. I liked our chances better with Price. It’s safe to say GMC will be better next year. But too many question marks after that. I do think clayborn will be a force eventually, Bowers, well no one knows…and out of curiosity, who was the last dominat NT….Booger seemed to have one good year.
