They never go out of style in a league loaded with talent.So, who should these young cats study and what can they learn from the tape when watching some of the best? Today, lets examine the top techniques by position. From Tom Bradys footwork in the pocket to Richard Shermans press-man skills, there is plenty to learn when the film is rolling.QuarterbackTom Bradys footwork/pocket managementIts subtle. But its also really sweet. Brady doesnt have top-tier athleticism in the pocket, and he isnt going to move like Aaron Rodgers when plays start to break down. But the key here is Bradys ability to create throwing lanes -- and time -- with his feet. Slide, step up/climb, give ground. This guy is so good at manipulating the pass rush and managing the pocket while keeping his eyes and footwork in unison. Thats a practiced, developed skill that young quarterbacks (at every level) should be studying. Brady owns the pocket. A master of technique. Wholesale Custom Heat Shirts .

I was able to make some pitches when I needed to. I really had an out pitch where I could put away some hitters.Latos had a solid first start with the Nationals, but left the game with one out in the fifth inning with hamstring tightness. He will be reevaluated Tuesday.Reynaldo Lopez (3-3) was among three relievers to combine for 4 2/3 scoreless innings.Latos signed with Washington in June after the Chicago White Sox released him.
