Neck burns and optimism. That's what NFL training camp is all about. While sunscreen helps with the neck issue, not much is blocking teams from feeling good about their players this time of year. Players are in the best shape of their lives. They want 1,500 yards or double-digit sacks. And coaches and front-office officials hope they get it.
All of that is easy to process when the NFL is a collective 0-0. What's great about a reporter's training camp tour is you can take a team at face value, making observations for the first time about what a roster can be.
