Aleksandr Milescu was asked this season to help host the annual kids training camp at the facility in london. Most kids had lined up to see life as a linebacker, and even a few who wanted to tool around with big hits against the pads as a D line player. Only a few seemed interested in secondary, but Milescu was still happy to have a few. London, however, had given Milescu no help or guidance as what to do with these kids. There was no qb or wr to scrimmage against, so instead the safety took any kids interested in the secondary over to where the kids practicing and learning wide receiver were hanging out and getting reps. The would be receivers would run a basic route, turn towards the incoming ball, and BOOM, there was a one of Milescu's kids. He left it up to the individual. Some kids went for the int, other to bat down the pass, and others still simply laid out the receiver. This plan only worked a few times before some of the London coaching staff came out and told Milescu theyd find him someone to throw balls and set up some footwork drills for the kids instead of just trolling the receivers. Training went on as one would normally expect after that, but no doubt the kids learned the real lessons of playing at safety that day.
