To say that he'll never see time at the slot in training camp seems kind of short-sighted. I don't think that Belichick would give a position over to a 2nd year player without some sort of camp competition to push the potential incumbent.

I think aside from the occasional play, the slot would be an under utilization of Prices talents. I hear him referred to as Greg Jennings ish, so the speed to get behind defenses and the tough-catch posession skills to cross the field deep.
