James Carpenter
1st – 14:50 – Excellent hands, stays low, strong and physical … understands the angle here on the run
1st – 13:50 – Slow feet … sluggish
1st – 10:10 – Solid job in pass protection … might be able to play RT in NFL … I like his patience here
1st – 9:46 – Good awareness and instincts to pick up blitz
Trent Richardson
1st – 14:19 – Upright running style … good job with ball security … doesn’t hit hole with a lot of authority
1st – 13:44 – Very sudden and can change directions on a dime … fluid and elusive in tight spaces
Jack Crawford
1st – 13:44 – Struggles to disengage … doesn’t show a lot of strength
2nd – 6:32 – Unimpressive speed … failed to eliminate space between he and QB Greg McElroy
Julio Jones
1st – 13:01 – 3rd and 2 … comeback route – ball is too high but doesn’t show a lot of effort to go vertical and make a play
1st – 11:13 – Nice job going up and getting football
1st – 9:10 – Physical and I love his run blocking here … really gets after it and involved
1st – 0:44 – Nice hands and plucks a high pass on screen … like his toughness to lower shoulder on contact
2nd – 8:47 – Unimpressive speed here after catch on screen
2nd – 1:33 – Inexcusably dropped pass … standing still, CB in off-man, screen pass right on his numbers
Greg McElroy
1st – 13:01 – Inaccurate pass on big 3rd down to sustain drive
1st – 2:31 – Horrible pass on screen … no excuse for this incompletion
Evan Royster
1st – 12:47 – Lacks burst to hit crease before getting tackled
1st – 12:02 – Very poor balance and falls to ground before receiving screen pass … blew a big yardage play
Mark Barron
1st – 7:41 – Terrific angle and fill in run support
2nd – 12:03 – Delivers massive hit in run support
Dont’a Hightower
2nd – 13:11 – Not making plays all game … shows little instincts, bad motor … jogging around the field … very disappointed so far
2nd – 12:31 – No speed … looks sluggish and overweight
