The 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 portions of practice continued to see a heavy emphasis on sub packages. Most lineups saw Jonathan Fanene and Brandon Deaderick as interior rushers. First-round pick Chandler Jones was also part of a unit where he lined up alongside Vince Wilfork. For the second straight week, third-year defensive end Jermaine Cunningham appeared to receive a heavy workload for 11-on-11 work, more than Trevor Scott, Ninkovich, or Jake Bequette.
Myron Pryor would probably bump Deaderick down the depth chart for interior rushers. The Cunningham observation is a little surprising, but if it really is a make or break year for him they’re giving him plenty of chances to show what he can do.
