McConkey and Bullard made several great plays this week and were consistently praised as the best.
“I think I handled it well,” Bullard said. “We have done our best to correct the technical errors, but the matches will come to them.“ “You can improve your game — kicking, dribbling, angles. As we say, ‘It’s better than nothing.They can do better.
McConkey shows dynamic routes and is considered the second option after his career in Mobile. McConkey battled back and ankle injuries during Georgia’s 2023 season, but looks like someone who will help an NFL team in their games this week.
Meanwhile, Bullard answered some questions you may have about his position at the next level. Bullard played wild and nickelback while at Georgia. Based on the way he’s practiced this week, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him do both at the next level.
Bullard and McConkey weren’t the only ones with accomplishments this week, as wide receiver Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint and safety Tykee Smith were also praised by the media who attended their practices.
“He’s everything you look for in a third-dayer. He’s strong, he’s reliable, his hands are amazing,” said Rosemy-Jacksaint senior bowling director Jim Nagy. “He works his tail off, he plays on special teams, he’s a great guy.
