Despite missing valuable learning time, Maclin proved in his first day of practice at Lehigh's Goodman Campus on Wednesday that he won't have a problem catching up fast. Maclin had participated in the Eagles' minicamp and optional training activities as well as quarterback Donovan McNabb's annual summer workout for receivers in Arizona. But nothing he's done since being drafted 19th overall in April compares to what he'll go through the rest of training camp.Outside of a few slips and mistakes, Maclin looked every bit like a receiver that will help the Eagles boast perhaps the best receiving corps McNabb has ever had. Also he is looking to get plenty of chances as the kick returner and punt returner during the Eagles' preseason opener Thursday night against the New England Patriots. If anything that is what he will see the most time playing this season.
