The 3 most impressive training camp performances: Week 1 edition Sometimes it can be difficult to discern whether a player is performing well in training camp or if it’s just that his competition is sub-par. Today Womens Alvin Kamara Jersey , we don’t have that problem as we’re going through the 3 most obvious producers through 5 days of camp.Marcus WilliamsFrom being a 2nd round pick, to being an enormous contributor on a rising young defense, and then to being the centerpiece of an unbelievable up-and-down playoff game, Marcus has had quite the past 14 months. What’s clear about the 21 year-old Mr. Williams is that he’s intent on transitioning from good young player to an absolute terror in the middle of the field. After seemingly living in the gym during the 2018 offseason, he’s translated his year of experience and NFL-caliber training into a 5-day training camp performance worth writing about. One of the best compliments you can make towards a defensive back is that he is always around the ball. With Marcus, it’s not that he’s just around it, he’s making contact with the ball every single day in practice. Whether that’s breaking it up or intercepting the pass, his propensity to be at the catch point from sideline to sideline in the deep part of the field is something opposing offenses will have to contend with in 2018. Dennis Allen’s defense already deploys a top-tier cornerbacks duo of Marshon Lattimore and Ken Crawley, making the passing windows already tight. The presence of Marcus Williams makes it so that the smallest of errors turn have serious potential to turn into big defensive plays.Michael ThomasIt’s extraordinarily difficult to find something to complain about when it comes to Michael Thomas. Mike gives maximum effort even when the ball doesn’t come his way, lines up all over the field, and he’s always elated to share in the success of his teammates. All of those compliments don’t even address how dominant he is as an actual receiver. He can run every route in the route tree, has a genuinely elite catch radius, and almost never drops a pass. What more do you want from your #1 wide receiver?Mike’s performance through the first week of training camp is what it looks like when a player in his physical prime has become a master of his craft. I think it can be dangerous to try to gleam too much from 1-on-1’s in training camp, however I can’t in good conscience write this article without showing this route. Michael Thomas uses his outside arm to club Crawley towards the middle of the field, implying that Mike’s intention is to gain separation before he breaks outside. However Michael Thomas Saints Jersey , as soon as Crawley turns outside to play the out, Mike takes advantage of Crawley’s blindspot and breaks inside on the dig route. That type of attention to detail and route running mastery, using his hands and feet in unison to set up the defensive back, is the sign of a wide receiver that is primed to abuse defenders on the way to another Pro Bowl berth in 2018.David OnyemataThis one isn’t necessarily about him being the most impressive player out there, but about being most impressed in the incredible jump he seems to have made in the past 8 months. David Onyemata has been a top-tier athlete at the defensive tackle position since entering the league 2 years ago, but his pass rush toolkit has been rather limited in terms of variety. He’s been a bit of a brute-force rusher for the past 2 years but since camp started last week, he’s been able to show that his hand usage is starting to match his physical abilities. Onyemata has been consistently re-adjusting his hands in the middle of the rush to regain control of his blocker and give himself a better chance at getting pressure when his initial rush plan falters. If Onyemata performs as well as he did last year, the Saints are looking at perhaps the best defensive line in the Sean Payton era; if Onyemata matches his physical potential with the same level of technical proficiency, he can help propel the unit to being the best defensive line ever fielded in the Saints 51 year history. NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Sean Payton was glassy-eyed, calm and shrugged his shoulders at times, seemingly resigned to New Orleans’ bitter fate — as unfair as he thought it was.And the Saints coach said NFL executives he spoke with by phone after a 26-23 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams agreed with him that officials on the field missed two obvious penalties on one late, game-turning play that might have prevented the Saints from advancing to the Super Bowl.Officials could have called pass interference and helmet-to-helmet contact on Rams cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman as he flattened Saints receiver Tommylee Lewis on an incomplete pass inside the Rams 10-yard line with 1:45 left in a tie game. The play occurred in close range of two officials along the sideline who never pulled out their flags.NFL senior vice president of officiating Al Riveron “couldn’t believe” no penalty call was called on the play, Payton said.“It’s tough to get over it,” Payton said. “My problem with it is, I just don’t know Marcus Davenport Jersey , if we were playing pickup football in the backyard … it was as obvious a call — and how two guys can look at that and arrive at their decision? It happened though.”As anger-infused, full-throated boos rained down relentlessly from the Superdome stands, replays on the stadium’s expansive video screens clearly showed Robey-Coleman’s high hit occurring before Drew Brees‘ pass toward the right sideline arrived at the spot where Lewis might have tried to make a play on the ball if he weren’t being knocked to the turn.“I bounced up looking for a flag and didn’t see one, so I was kind of shocked about that,” Lewis said. “I saw what everybody else saw.“You all feel like it was obvious? There it is. Everybody knows it was obvious,” Lewis added. “I don’t know what else to say about it.”Even Robey-Coleman seemed surprised.“Came to the sideline, looked at the football gods and was like, ‘Thank you,'” Robey-Coleman said. “I got away with one tonight.”Rams coach Sean McVay, now headed to his first Super Bowl at age 32, was less inclined to scrutinize the call publicly.“Certainly I’m not going to complain about the way it was officiated, but I thought it was a competitive play,” McVay said. “I thought they let the guys compete within the framework of the rules and that’s part of what NFL football is about.”Had a flag been thrown, the Saints would have run the clock down to the final seconds before setting up a short field goal try clinch the franchise’s second NFC title, Payton said. Instead Alvin Kamara Jersey , the Saints had to try the kick with more than 1:40 left — enough time for the Rams to drive for a tying field goal. The game then went to overtime, when an interception by Rams safety John Johnson III set up Greg Zuerline’s 57-yard game-winning field goal.“We’ll probably never get over it,” Payton added.Saints quarterback Drew Brees, who at age 40 is running out of chances to get to a Super Bowl, said it was “tough to swallow” the non-call.“Plenty of times throughout the season, there’s calls that go against you, go for you,” Brees said. “But obviously in a situation like that where it seemed like everybody in the world saw it, it’s tough.”Both Payton and Brees suggested that the way the call tarnished the result of a conference title game could stimulate discussion about widening replays to look at reviewing certain penalties committed at certain points of the game, as has happened in the NBA.“There’s just too much at stake,” Payton said. “And listen, it’s a hard job for those guys. It’s happening fast. But I don’t know if there was ever a more obvious pass interference.“We all want to get it right, right? We’ve got plenty of technology to speed things up,” Payton added. “Look, I’m on the competition committee. So Marshon Lattimore Jersey White , hopefully that provides a voice. I hope no other team has to lose a game the way we lost that one today, though. We were in position. … We’d be on our knee for three plays and — it’s disappointing.”Brees said he expects the NFL’s replay rules to “constantly evolve as they try to make this game batter and try to make sure that it is as fair as possible.”“There’s a lot happening out there and it happens very, very fast,” Brees said. “Obviously, if they were replaying pass interference or if somebody got hit early before the ball got there, then I’m sure that would have been reviewed today — and it would been found that that was P.I.“It’s easy to sit here and criticize. I’m sure that because of this, as a result of this, I’m sure there will be a lot of talk about potentially reviewing penalties,” Brees added. “Just like all the reviews that go up in the booth inside of two minutes. Maybe that’s something that will happen in regards to certain penalties as well that are game-changing penalties, which obviously that was today.”
