And, again, I do like him as a player and a person.
He was taken over Mardy Gilyard, so that's saying something, at least for me. If it was the right choice, that is.

Reiss being awesome:

Observations from rookie minicamp - New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston

My fave snippet of all the great bits...

Quote:
Jermaine Cunningham at right outside linebacker. Second-round draft choice Jermaine Cunningham, who played defensive end in Florida's 4-3 defense, spent the workout at right outside linebacker. This will be an important transition to monitor, as Cunningham could help the team in a top area of need, the pass rush. After the practice, Cunningham said he dropped into coverage about 50 percent of the time while at Florida, which seems like an unusually high number. While no definitive judgment can be made at this point, Cunningham looked comfortable playing in a two-point stance. He said this was the first practice he's spent that much time in a two-point stance.

Overall sounds like the skill guys looked very solid and Spikes is the personality we expect; and as PFW quotes him, Spikes tweaked one of Bill's favorite quotes when talking about his 40 time :

"“It is what it is, but it ain’t what you think.”"

They love Gronk. We have to have more red zone threats, I think we'll be shocked at what a big upgrade we get this year at TE.

Love these:

Quote:
– TE Aaron Hernandez mis-timed a jump and hung in the air for forever to make the catch anyway. Pretty impressive.

– Cunningham is standing up as an OLB, and Spikes called the plays for the young group.

– TE Rob Gronkowski is monstrous. But he really does receive the balls pretty softly. Both TEs were being coached by Brian Ferentz.

I can’t say enough good things about Gronkowski. Everything we saw on tape – soft hands, smooth routes and casual playmaking style – were evident on the practice field. I’ll say it again, Tom Brady is going to love this guy
