Golden Tate stood out during Friday’s minicamp practice with a one-handed catch during one-on-one drills, a leaping grab between Marcus Trufant and Jordan Babineaux in seven-on-seven drills and then blowing by Josh Wilson’s attempt to jam him. Saturday wasn’t quite so spectacular.

Golden doesn’t shine quite so much Saturday
At the conclusion of Seattle’s three-day minicamp before the draft, cornerback Marcus Trufant was asked how he felt now. “Night and day,” he said, a reference to the way he felt last season. The difference in Trufant’s conditioning was readily apparent during Friday’s minicamp practice, when Trufant picked off a pair of passes in the 11-on-11 team portion of practice.

A quick round-up of notes and observations from the first practice during Seattle’s three-day minicamp: • CB Marcus Trufant picked off two passes during the team drills, the 11-on-11 portion of practice.

Quick notes from minicamp
Coach Pete Carroll confirmed receiver Deion Branch did undergo an arthroscopic procedure on his knee, the third operation the receiver has had in a little over two years. Carroll said it wasn’t a matter of pain, but rather there was some swelling earlier this month and the determination was made to clean-up. Carroll didn’t give a timetable for his recovery, but it’s not expected to impact his availability for the season

OK, now to start out let’s keep in mind the regular season is still four months away, and offseason surgery — while not a universal occurrence in the NFL — is not uncommon, either. So consider those qualifiers before beginning the solemn rite of “The Wringing of Hands and Gnashing of Teeth.” Wide receiver Deion Branch underwent a basic arthroscopic surgery on his knee

Crack research expert and drive-time voice of reason Mike Gastineau of KJR-AM dropped a little nugget of knowledge at the end of my Wednesday segment on his show, pointing out Golden Tate’s fourth-quarter production last year: 28 catches for 493 yards and seven touchdowns. Not only that, but Notre Dame’s season was notable for just how many games went down to the wire. So consider that a positive sign for his production

Comments by panelist Jeetu Patdla, a Doculab Consultant; “Innovative use of information is not changing corporations as much as transforming entire industries.” For example, consider how Netflix’s mail order movie DVDs service model has impacted Blockbuster’s bricks and mortar movie DVD rental business.

The joint On Demand and Info 360 AIIM Conference was expected to have drawn about 24,000 attendees to Philadelphia this past week despite the myriad of flight cancellations out of Europe due to Eyjafjallajokull’s eruption.

Seminars were of secondary interest as they touted variable data case studies as they have for more than a decade.
