What did we take away from Raiders OTAs on Wednesday?

We'll talk about that.

feedback, a lot to have to do with what you heard from the press conferences that followed

OTAs on Wednesday. So we'll get a lot of that in as much as possible coming up in segment

number three. Segment number two, well, we're going to do it both in segment one and two. We're

Now remember, there's no pads, there's no physicality, but for the fact that he was out there

and participated in everything,

as opposed to what we saw from him in rookie camp,

where he just did some limited work and then also was observing,

did some little bit of punt return, but that was really it.

It was a limited capacity, but that was rookie camp.

Now you're talking about OTAs, and I'll tell you right now,
