Random Ramsdom, 1/26: Senior Bowl notes

by Ryan Van Bibber on Jan 26, 2010 6:53 AM CST

Do you think the Colt and the Saints are looking back this week and thinking about their games with the St. Louis Rams from this season? Probably. We've got notes from the Senior Bowl and a head-scratcher of a firing at Rams Park, all of that in today's Random Ramsdom.

Long-time Rams trainer can't explain his firing
It's not about the injuries, said Devaney and Spagnuolo. The guys who install the turf are looking over their shoulders.

LSU WR Brandon LaFell drops out of the Senior Bowl
This is kind of a surprise for a guy who could have player, er, practiced his way into first round talk. Also, Tim Tebow struggled during the first day of the week as did Cincy WR Mardy Gilyard.

More from the Senior Bowl.

Tony Pike making ugly throws
Pike did not throw the ball well yesterday. The key thing to remember, according to this report form Walter Football, is not to put too much stock in the first day of practice at the Senior Bowl.

Practice notes from the South squad
A couple names of note from the South squad: Florida State S Myron Rolle, 'Bama CB Javier Arenas and QB Zac Robinson.

Tebow also struggled mightily during his first Senior Bowl practice.

I’m having a hard time finding the exact info on the web but here’s a story from the miami herald.

From what I heard reported on the radio last night, Tebow (under center) fumbled the first snap he took and then either 5 of the next 11 snaps or 6 of the next 10 snaps. Either way, that horrible.

Then he went on to miss recievers badly and throw several “wobblers” with one being intercepted. Reports are also coming in that his mechanics have not changed. He’s still dropping the ball below his waist before throwing and it looks as if no effort was made to correct anything.

Every report has been that he looked horrible. Although, most of the major outlets seem to be omitting the particulars.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

Tebow ought to convert him to a tight end.

I hear he has strep throat

too but you should be able to at least take a snap without dropping it. I wouldn’t mind picking him up if he was a UFA but even then that’s a gamble.

Anybody hear anything about Danario Alexander?

If he can show some route running ability I think that would help his stock a lot.

The report I heard today said

he is faster than most of the scouts realized, and they like his size, but he has dropped a few passes he could have caught. He has attracted attention in a positive way, but he needs to start catching everything coming his way if he really wants to move up.
