Tennessee Titans Wednesday Practice Report

Jim Wyatt has posted a report from today's practice on his blog.  The blog picture looks a little funny with just Wyatt since Paul Kuharsky is now done.  Note to The Tennessean: If you need any help blogging, I am available.  Thanks!

Anyways, here are a couple of interesting tidbits from Wyatt's tidbits:

--Receiver Lavelle Hawkins is off to a good start. Hawkins has strong hands and catches the ball well in coverage, something he did several times on Wednesday.

I think Hawkins is going to see significant time this season.  He might make us all look stupid for freaking out that it took the Titans so long to take a receiver in the draft.

--Quarterback Vince Young was a little inconsistent on his deep balls, but he made a couple of great throws downfield, one to Hawkins for a touchdown.

He looked lost throwing the ball down the field last season, so as long as he is making progress I am happy.

--Receiver Biren Early continues to impress. Ealy made several catches even in tight coverage. He’s physical enough to wrestle the ball away from defenders but is also getting open.

I really hope Ealy can earn a spot on this team.  That would be a great story.

--After receiver Brandon Jones caught a touchdown pass from quarterback Ingle Martin, linebacker Keith Bulluck and tight end Bo Scaife began razzing Jones about his embarrassing news last week. (Jones showed up at the airport with a gun in his bag).

That's funny.

--Rookie Chris Johnson handled catching punts without much trouble.

I cannot wait to see what he will be able to do in the return game.

I'd love to see Biren Ealy step-up and be the new Drew Bennett (minus the situational butterfingers)

I’m also suprised there wasn’t any mention of Mike Williams in his notes…

Hey Jimmy!

You should send a letter to the Tennessean’s Sports Editor. Not an email, a real, honest-to-God letter. And resume and a few writing samples (hopefully ones that have already been published somewhere). Most papers hire at least some reporters on a freelance basis, and I’d think you’d be qualified if you can prove that you write well. They pay for product; you just need to show you can deliver.

It is possible. I got an interview with Newsweek that way when I was getting out of the Army. I sent a letter, resume, and an article I’d written for Armor Magazine, and got an invite to NYC. I didn’t end up going on the interview-I took a job as an engineer-but I did get the invite.

Lavelle's Catch

was on Reynaldo, so I’m not as impressed as I would be, had it been Fin or Harp.

amen...

Hill nearly picked off Young once near the goal line, and was around the ball. But he also got beat on a deep ball.

That’s he story of Hill’s career so far: he’s always close enough to maybe make a tackle, but not enough to stop the cat form catching it.

So, so frustrating.
