Not a bad camp for the Generals except that science guy. Bill Nye dropped 25 points by my weights, the biggest loser in the league. I brokedown everyone's progress based on my weights and it wasn't pretty for most teams.
We only had 10 teams with positive camps, Washington had no picks so 21 teams had a net negative camp.
Pittsburgh and Houston had the best camps, both gaining 17 points with their 4 rookies. Houston was aided by RDE Steve Walker's +14, the biggest boom I saw. Pittsburgh got their +17 by having all 4 rookies boom (+6, +5, +5, +1).
Worst draft was Birmingham, who saw 5 of 6 players lose overall ratings points including a pair of -13's and a -24. In total, Birmingham had 6 rookies whose overall fell a combined 54 points. Next were 5 teams who lost between 31 and 37 points, although the New York Stars did have a QB boom. 3rd round pick Damien Oleary gained 6 points and will eventually have 100 accuracy.
Overall, there were 237 rookies on rosters as of now, and collectively they lost 257 points.
Realistically we had 2 players who camp mattered for. Unfortunately the quarterback won't make it but the 4th round reciever made positive strides.

Pleasant surprise was a 100 vol DT booming for +9. Disappointed our kicker busted. He will be a bandaid for now

Negative Camps
Birmingham 6 rookies, -54
Possibly the worst camp I ever had.
1.8 LB Alexander -5 1.26 C Fincher -21 2.8 LG Taylor -16 3.1 LB Hatfield -14 3.6 LB Heflin +/- 0 4.8 DT Long +/- 0
Very discouraging.

Man, I thought our camp was rough - but find out that 5 teams fared worse. Brutal.
