Favre had stated, during his first comeback out of retirement, something along the lines of not wanting to take anything away from Aaron Rodgers. That it was Rodgers turn and he respects that. The truth finally comes out. I'm not surprised that there were some politics going on. So this is where Favre got the fuel to his fire. How he sky rocketed to his most successful season. In last night's FFToolbox Expert Mock Draft (July), I saw Favre go in the 8th round. Goes to show that no matter how much people are saying he's coming back, there's still some doubt in the air to go that low. If we do another mock draft next month (please let us Jeff!), I'm interested to see where Favre would go again. If he's not gone by the 5th round, I'm gonna take him and see what kind of team I end up with in the end.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers jerseys quarterback Josh Freeman is spending another vacation day at One Buc Place. While that has become old news in the 2010 offseason, this week Freeman's time on the football field is in a different capacity. Tampa Bay's starting quarterback has run a four-day commuter football camp. Freeman grew up attending football camps, and was excited to be able to provide one for the Tampa Bay community.
"It was an easy decision," said Freeman. "We were brainstorming and decided it would be a great idea to put together a camp for all positions. I do all ages. This was actually the third day of high school commuter camps. We're working hard and coaching hard. I'm getting to know the kids and get to know what Tampa high school football is all about.
"All the proceeds from this camp benefit the YMCA, they can always use support and help. We're going to bless them in a big way by doing this camp. The first two days they blessed us and allowed us to hold it at their facility. Today I thank Mark Dominik and Raheem Morris for letting us hold it here at One Buc."
The 22-year old Freeman credits football camps with his development. Participating in football camps helped Freeman to earn a football scholarship, and end up being a first-round pick in the 2009 NFL Draft. Freeman talked about what he learned in his experience at football camps.
"Everything I could whether it was foot work drills, the way to hold the ball, the way to throw the ball, and tons of different things," said Freeman. "I learned a lot, and I got a lot of confidence from coming to these camps. I got good coaching and learned how to compete."
Freeman has gotten some help from his teammates. Guard Marc Dile came by to work with the offensive linemen. Tampa Bay Buccaneers jerseys running back Justin Vincent and Bucs wide receiver Mario Urrutia pitched in as well. The campers were also treated to coaching from an NFL head coach with Morris. A few of the campers traveled from Texas and other states to participate. Freeman and a quarterback coaching guru were a big draw.
