Here we go with some notes from yesterday:
- Julius Jones broke a nice long run, "exploding" through a hole and blowing through the 11-on-11 practically untouched. Gotta like that, eh?
- The Hass to Hass connection is good, with Matt hitting Mike downfield for a 60-yard touchdown pass.
- The team had full-contact goal line drills, and it was nice and physical. John Carlson caught a TD, wahoo!
- Danny O'Neil has some good news: Jordan Babineaux had a great morning practice. He had a couple of interceptions in the morning practice while filling in for the sitting Deon Grant.
- Nate Burleson sat out his first practice to rest his knee, but all indications are that it is not bothering him at all. He has looked great and has certainly cemented himself as the second WR behind Housh.
- O'Neil also has a little write-up on Darryl Tapp and his changing role in Mora's defense:
"We'd like to use him specifically as a third-down pass rusher," Mora said, "and then as a spot guy on first and second down. I think someone made a comment [Monday] that Tapp always looks good in training camp, and then sometimes disappears in the season. "I wouldn't dispute that, but I think this year, it'll be a different story."

Is this a viable option for the Hawks?
