The first picture in that story depicts one of my critiques of Elam's play...he is the last guy on the LOS to get in a stance. I'm not sure what the hell he is doing in that photo but I don't think it is what the staff is teaching.

Peace

well he shutdown the inside run that game. ul torched us on the zone read but it was to the outside. if you're critiquing him on that game then i'd suggest you dont know what the nt job is... he shut down 2 gaps... as a true soph. he'll be better this year and will get drafted after next year.

I hope he becomes the football player so many thinks he will be. But i ask myself if he ever would have played a down at Alabama much less ever in the NFL.

The picture of him standing straight up and waving his arms prior to the snap, in the UL game, and that he shows up overweight for Spring practice makes me think he has a long way to go and a short time to get there.
