Would love to see the Alualu and Beadles skirmish

Alualu seems a little fiery this year. He's always been a pretty subdued guy. I like it.

You are welcome sir.

You can look at their schedule.
Additionally, you can watch the practices and they're not that hard honestly. You'd be lucky to find more than 20% of the guys moving at one particular time. They get 4-5 reps (max) and they get subbed out.
I really don't see what the gruesome part of training camp is nowadays.
It is easier than the old days but still... nothing is easy in 90 degree heat.
And you will still be sore. Muscles get tight and it leads to pulls and strains.
There is still contact if not full blown hitting. Why do you think Bryant and Beatles got into a fight? There is contact happening even with no pads.
I wonder if the Jags would be better off holding camp in another locale like Coughlin did initially.
Maybe the heat/ humidity right off the bat isn't such a good thing for some of these Jags players and is leading to the mass amounts of injuries every year in camp.

Oh I know, but that's to be expected in professional sports.
Just don't quite understand the nightmare stories of training camp.

You mean like our inaugural year when Tom took the Jags to Stevens Point, Wisconsin, which if I'm not mistaken still goes down as the hottest training camp in our history?

perhaps.. Maybe some research on other hot and humid cities that have similar conditions and see if they are experiencing similar injuries. I'm betting we aren't the only team but tons of injuries but since we follow them closely it just looks like our team has more.
With the effort that the organization has been putting forward to "connect with the following", I don't think moving Training Camp is going to be seriously considered by those with the authority to make that decision.

PLAY OF THE DAY
The play of the day might be better described as entire drill. Rookie wide receiver Marqise Lee turned in a memorable performance during one-on-one, receiver/defensive back drills, catching numerous passes and getting open consistently. He caught at least one deep pass down the sideline for a touchdown and was open for several deep sideline routes for long gains. Jaguars Radio Analyst Jeff Lageman called it one of the best one-on-one receiving drills he ever has seen.
HIGHLIGHTS
*Wide receiver Mike Brown also was impressive in one-on-one receiving drills, continuing to take advantage of opportunities with multiple injuries at the receiver position. …
*Safety Winston Guy continued to be active in practice, breaking up two passes on Tuesday. …
*Rookie quarterback Blake Bortles also continued to look good in practice, showing good vision and accuracy, particularly on intermediate routes. …
*Rookie linebacker Telvin Smith had a pass breakup that was nearly an interception in a 7-on-7 drill. …
*Starting quarterback Chad Henne had two nice passes down the middle to rookie wide receiver Marcel Jenson during 7-on-7 drills. …
*Rookie safety Craig Loston intercepted quarterback Ricky Stanzi late in practice.

that's also a really good point.

Yeah, hopefully he can continue this trend and get under the skin of the opposition.

Holding the first camp in Wisconsin was a bad idea. You were away from your fan base and it was hotter there than it was here. No need to move it.

That's simple enough with 2 other teams in Florida going thru training camp in similar conditions.

Is this Alualu's contract year? Just wondering, as the coaches seem to really like the guy and if he performs well it will be interesting to see what happens.
