NFL mini-camps

Post by **kmax** » Fri Apr 30, 2004 11:45 am

The dates for the first nfl mini-camps were released recently. Here are the dates for the teams that have recently acquired a new Bobcat.

Green Bay (Joey Thomas): April 30-May 2
San Diego (Jay Hackett): May 7-9 (rookies only); June 11-13
San Francisco (Brent Swaggert): May 7-9
Tampa Bay (Kane Ioane): April 30-May 2 (rookies only); June 22-24

I would think that these guys will be attending the camps, especially the free agent guys, though I can't confirm that anywhere. I will keep an eye out for any reports coming out of the mini-camps and post the info here if I find anything. If there are any bobcatnation members in any of the areas of these teams, watch your local papers and let us know if you see any news of how these guys are doing in the first taste of the NFL.

Here are a few links about the camps. I will keep looking for some more info as these don't mention any of them or how they did.

A good article about the rookie camps and what they do:Basic training for undrafted rookies

Bucs releases on the weekend's rookie camp:

One Last Look

Packers releases on the weekends camp:

Interesting note here as apparently Bozeman High product Travis Dorsch is apparently vieing for a spot on the roster as a punter/kickoff specialist as well.
