Monday Practice Notes: Let a defensive players get inside his body and control him along the line, but settled down and did well blocking on pulls and traps.
Tuesday Practice Notes: Very slow off the snap. Makes up for his lack of explosion by being strong as a bull. But like most brute strong athletically limited guard prospects, Ramirez has a tendency to try and overpower all his opponents and usually ends up in wrestling matches. Especially when you consider he does not get any extension in his follow through.
Wednesday Practice Notes: Big, physical, straight ahead drive blocker. Would excel in this area even more if he were to just get his hands inside and use his strength. Even showed some ability today to get to the second level when uncovered. Did have his helmet popped off by a linebacker who got underneath Ramirez’s chin at one point.
