2008 Texas vs. Nation - Day 1 Texas Practice Report
by Sigmund Bloom, Cecil Lammey, Marc Faletti & Josh Buchanan

QB

Bret Meyer, Iowa State

Sporadic accuracy, might be a little keyed up - showed the athleticism to make a possible position switch in the pros. Did put good touch on the fly route.

Daniel Polk, Midwestern State

Got some work at WR - looked natural catching the deep ball showed nice straight line speed on a go route, scouts want to see him at RB.

Caleb Hanie, Colorado State

Showed good wheels on a bootleg, otherwise was inconsistent.

Adam Tafralis, San Jose State

When he looks good, he looks really good - accurate ball with good velocity - but sometimes is way off. Does have good mobility when the play breaks down - which is a good thing because he holds on to the ball too long too often.

RB

James Johnson, Kansas State

Runs too upright for a small back, only NFL future is as a situational back.

Xaiver Omon, NW Missouri State

Great receiver out of the backfield, including one catch over the middle which was a little behind him - he knew he was going to get drilled and unflinchingly made the catch. Showed great cuts at speed and vision all day. Tough to bring down - doesn't go down on initial contact, and carried tacklers on many runs
