«I think coming out early like that, he has to really try and showcase himself, especially since he didn't get to go to the combines. He's got to make his mark out there with people watching him and maybe they'll work him out a little further.»

«After watching tape Friday night and after four days, there's been a lot of improvement since the first day that we were out here. We've got a lot of guys working hard and a lot of guys making some steps. We've still got a lot more that we want to accomplish, but I'm pleased so far with what's taken place through five days. So far we're healthy, too. We haven't lost anybody in five days, which is important.»

«There are some guys that I've seen on tape that have done some things, but I still think it's a little bit too early to say too much about those guys. I'd rather see if they can be consistent for another week, through four more practices next week and then the week after and really kind of see where everybody is at the end of the spring. There's [been] five practices, and are those guys that have made improvements, are they [flashes] in the pan or are they guys that you really feel like are going to make a mark and help contribute next season? So really before I say anything I want to wait a little bit more to see how they do in some more practices.»

«I thought he would fit in better back at safety. I think he was struggling a little bit at the Husky position so we wanted to put him back at strong safety, where he was probably a little bit more comfortable. We didn't want to go too deep into spring without doing that so we tried to evaluate it as quickly as we could with him.»

«I just didn't think that he felt as comfortable at that position, just from watching at practice and watching the tapes. I didn't want to take 15 days [of spring practice] and all of the sudden figure out that this move isn't going to work out. That was pretty much it more than anything else. Some guys you can move and you can see that they feel natural. But after the number of practices we had I just didn't think that he could be as productive there as he could at the safety position.»

«For a big man, he's got pretty light feet.»

«I think he's progressed each practice. He seems to grasp all the concepts he's being taught. He understands his assignments, he understands the concepts. Now it's just a matter of him working extremely hard on the techniques he's being taught ? which he is.»

«I think it's working out very well. It's good because all five of those guys or all 15 of those guys are in the same room and they're hearing the same thing. Not that there was a problem, but I think those five always have to work together.»

«I don't know if he's all the way back, but I know this, he's a lot better now than what he was at the end of last season. I think he feels a lot more comfortable. There are things that he's doing that I think he's getting close to exactly where he was before. I've been pleased with what he's been able to do and the workload that we've been able to give him this spring.»
