Its only May but some great stuff is coming out of mini-camp:
1. The Ravens: All 85 players in camp were involved in a brawl Saturday. Offensive tackle Oniel Cousins and defensive tackle Amon Gordon threw punches after running back Allen Patrick was taken down hard on a play up the middle. All the players surged toward the middle of the field. Also, new draft pick QB Joe Flacco (I thought he was on the Sopranos) was turning heads. I dont know much about this guy but hes 6-foot-6 and from the University of Delaware. Whens the last time the Ravens had someone who could throw. Todd Heap was healthy for mini-camp? WOW. AMAZING.
2. Raiders top pick Darren McFadden got a wake up call with his first practice. This aint college anymore, gangsta. This is the NFL, which stands for Not For Long, if you suck. On his first play he burst through the middle during a drill and slowed up as he reached the secondary only to be scolded by offensive coordinator for not running hard for 40 yards. Then ex-49er great fullback Tom Rathman got on McFadden's case when he carried the ball back to the huddle with his elbow not tucked in close to the body to secure the ball. Also during practice they lined him up at WR and QB. The Raiders are mess but this guy will be interesting. I hope he doesnt turn out to be a Reg Bush.
3. Lions: They are not good
