Before any NFL stardom, McFadden must hit the books

Thanks 40, I think McFadden will be fine, as long as he works on pass protection and blitz pick-ups.

In two days of practice, he has sprinted around the edge, powered inside the middle, run routes as a wideout and caught passes out of the backfield. He even lined up at quarterback.

No play stood out more than the last of Saturday's practice.
McFadden grabbed a counter pitch, accelerated around the left corner, cut inside a singled-out linebacker and burst down the sideline for what would have been Touchdown, Raiders.

Thanks for the post.

I love reading this stuff on our rookies. Bush & McFadden just tearing it up. Good stuff man, good stuff.
