Is the concept really so difficult to grasp?

The team has made it clear they want everyone there.
Offensive players would be foolish not to begin getting a jump on a new playbook with new terminology. 

Defensive players that consider missing have slightly more rope with which to hang themselves, but if you’re going to skip it, you’d better feel you’re valuable enough to the team to live through a little time in the dog house with some of the staff. (Be able to survive some scrutiny) 

So yes, if you’re not good enough to have a starting role cemented in April, your [BLEEP] had better be there buttering up to the teacher, doing all of those extra credit assignments and leaving a fresh Apple on the  desk on your way out the door each day.

It's not difficult to grasp at all.  Last year was the first year Ramsey skipped it and was his worst year as a pro.  He was still good last year but not close to his 2017 year.  Players have personal life and sometimes things might come up and I understand, like last year Ramsey had a baby and  he skipped it and it was no big deal.  Someone on FB said Telvin is skipping it because he has heard his name in trade rumors.  Has anyone heard that's why Telvin didn't show up?

It would be nice if they were there but by training camp it will be a non issue
