[I]The East-West Shrine Bowl continued Sunday in Frisco, TX, with the second practice session leading up to Thursday’s game.

Here are four players who made positive impressions.[/I]

[HEADING=1]TE Oronde Gadsden II, Syracuse[/HEADING]
The [URL='https://sportsdata.usatoday.com/football/nfl/teams/los-angeles-chargers/357']Chargers[/URL] need more production from their tight ends in the passing game. Gadsden brings a wide receiver skillset to the tight end position. For his size, at 6-foot-2 and 247 pounds, he is a smooth mover with good foot quickness and explosive in and out of his routes. Gadsden caught everything thrown at him, reeling in the football with his long wingspan and strong hands. He led all tight ends nationally with 969 yards receiving.

[HEADING=1]WR Jackson Meeks, Syracuse[/HEADING]
The wide receiver room needs some retooling this offseason. The Chargers should look to add a true No. 1 wideout, but additional depth is also a must. Meeks raised eyebrows by consistently getting open with sharpness in his routes and playing physical. He made a nice catch through a defensive pass interference penalty deep down the sideline. Meeks only had 10 catches for 131 yards during his time with Georgia, and amassed 78 catches for 1,021 yards, and seven catches in one season with Syracuse.
