When you have a guy amputees especially guys mean so much defense like Vrabel. Once he's out here you can set aside any fears that a few key situation will last into the season -- like that with Richard Seymour last here. Good to see him out there the more intriguing elements as we go forward is where does she fit into the 34 can he get into is more comfortable. Outside linebacker spot weather plays a pre season games not that will be looking for on the practice field in coming days while we all expected to see Tom -- act here and we did not what I always mistake yet I don't really think much she was out there on the practice out last night that was inside the stadium.

We'll get a little bit more reps that are here and there and so that's good for me because getting in there with the number one team. Taken those reps who withdrew in Indian Jabbar and working and with a personal line and given them confidence in me into. There's always -- good thing so. This is this team's been good I was happy it's almost -- us and so little bit and it's my -- You know we love to have him out here he's a great leader in when he's out here it's fun when it's not just.
