These drills are all in favor of the defensive player IMO, so when I see an O-lineman stonewall a guy that really means a lot.

Tommy looked very, very impressive today, as did Austin Mack.

Kraemer, Mack, Jonathan Cooper, Tavian Feaster and DeMario McCall looked head and shoulders above the rest.

Tommy reps at the NFTC Columbus.

Impressive performance. Thats Prince Sammons he takes on in the first 3 reps, beats him on all 3. Where I thought he'd have a problem is versus a true speed rusher. In the next two reps he takes on Jonathan Cooper who has been a camp phenom this spring and summer. He split those reps with Cooper, kudos to Tommy. Lastly I'm not sure who he takes on at the end but I thought he looked pretty good considering the setting.

Yup, looked great to me. As we all know..those drills are seriously in favor of the D lineman. Those little arm slaps on the stationary QB dummy aren't going to be taking down (or even touching) a mobile/strong Zaire, Kizer or Wimbush.

Kraemer Gets Open - Irish Sports Daily

For the Cincinnati Elder standout, the competition was good, but only Ohio State commit Jonathan Cooper gave him a run for his money.
“Some of the competition is what I was used to, but Jonathan Cooper was on a whole different level,” said Kraemer. “I wasn’t used to that level of competition, but I felt I handled him pretty well. I am going to keep working, so I am used to the bump up in competition.”
The reps against Cooper provide Kraemer with some valuable experience and a good judgment on what he needs to work on this summer.
“I think I am going to keep working on my speed and get a little faster,” he explained. “My speed was the only problem I had with Cooper. I felt good in the other aspects and held my line well. It was my quickness in my feet that will be need to get a little bit quicker.”
The 6-foot-5, 310-pounder also got a chance to simply bond with other top prospects that have gone through the recruiting process.

Also on Sunday, it was quite noticeable Kraemer had done some trimming down. Kraemer definitely has kept his imposing frame, but it seems he is transitioning from a high school lineman to a college lineman.
“I am not purposely trying to drop weight right now,” he said. “I tweaked my nutrition a little bit and cut back on all the crap. I guess that is the reason I dropped down a little bit. No more Price Hill chili or Skyline chili for me anymore.”
For Kraemer, the camp was about competing and earning The Opening invite, but he also wanted to do some recruiting for Notre Dame on 2017 Indiana quarterback Hunter Johnson.
“I didn’t get a chance to speak to Hunter today and I was kind of disappointed,” stated Kraemer. “At the end, it was crazy with media after I got The Opening invite. I know he will be at the Irish Invasion camp, so I will definitely get to speak to him there. Hopefully, we can get another good quarterback.”
Up next for Kraemer will be a return to South Bend in June for a set of camps. He will compete in one, but the other he will serve as recruiter and presence on campus for his 2016 class.

Did he happen to "bump" into Tommy at the event?

“I take pride in the fact that one of the top players in Ohio is going to Notre Dame over Ohio State.

“I think it shows that they still have that recruiting tie in Ohio and can keep it going.”

This quote is awesome!

The quote I posted above was from Tommy, the OSU fanbase would derail if Urban said that.

Anyone have the scoop as to why Kraemer and Eichenberg have fallen in 247's rankings?
