They want to keep Birk fresh plus Gino is the future.

I think this is good news based on the fact that Birk is just getting some time off. I like when the young guys get valuable reps early in camp.

This is real good news love to see gino get the early work and then have birk ready for our super bowl push.

Gino has been holding his own, even Mike Preston (Mr. Critical) has been impressed with him. The Ravens may have found themselves another draft day steal, could be 2 for 2 from Delaware.

Can't lose with a name like Gino in this town.

 

Rookie center Gino Gradkowski mixed it up with massive nose guard Terrence “Mount” Cody, grabbing Cody’s facemask.

 

They were eventually separated. Gradkowski also had an altercation with inside linebacker Dannell Ellerbe.

 

Harbaugh likes Gradkowski’s nasty disposition on the field.

 

There was also an exchange between offensive tackle Kelechi Osemele and linebacker Jameel McClain.

 

“He’s very smart, he’s very tough,” Harbaugh said of Gradkowski, a Pittsburgh native drafted in the fourth round out of Delaware. “He’s very competitive, kind of a tough, mean, nasty type of guy We like his style.”

No if he was in philthy he would be living it up with a name like Gino.

I love seeing the rooks get at it with the vets. That is what makes a better football team. The young guys pushing the vets harder as long as it doesn't start to mess with team chemistry.

 

Beat the shit out of each other on the field and then have a beer (or gatorade) off it to make things good.
