Default Minicamp Updates - day two

BostonHerald.com - Blogs: Rap Sheet Blog Archive What happened during the Patriots second day of mini-camp?

Quote:
– The most interesting part of the practice came in a spirited, trash-talk filled goal line segment that saw both sides make an imprint. The thing that stood out was that it was loud. Both sides communicating each check.

– Another nice scene during goal line passing work.Randy Moss spotted WR Darnell Jenkins running his route wrong and called him over. Then Moss asked Tom Brady, who was also standing there, to pose as a defender while Moss showed Jenkins the proper technique.
Per Mike Reiss:

Dante Scarnecchia coordinating the running game. In each of the practices in organized team activities, offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia has led drills focused on the run game. He is especially hard on the linemen for missed mental assignments, and that was certainly the case today. He didn't seem happy with some of the reserve linemen.

This speaks volumes about multiple topics covered ad nauseum on this forum. Liking the updates. The report about Brady and Tate connecting made me smile as did the report of Moss helping some of the younger receivers. I would really like to see something get done with him after the 2010 season is over.

Co-sign. Can't understand how its a foregone conclusion that Moss is gone after 2010. If this team competes for a title and Brady and Moss retain their chemistry and put up similar #s to 2007 or 2009, all parties involved - Brady, Moss, the Patriots - would want to keep the band together.

Again the PFW blog is ignored despite it having the best information and the longest column per practice.

Quote:
As I mentioned, the assistants on both sides of the ball were quite vocal. Matt Patricia, the de facto defensive coordinator who signaled in the defensive calls in team drills during practice, called his entire group on the carpet at one point. Veteran offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia berated Thomas Welch and John Wise after the left tackle and guard failed to read a combo-block properly in a drill. Bill O’Brien, the de facto offensive coordinator, had to send the entire receiver group off the field when rookie tight ends Aaron Hernandez and Rob Gronkowski couldn’t get lined up correctly on the left side of the formation. Much to O’Brien’s very vocal chagrin, the new, veteran group that replaced them didn’t run the play exactly right either. Whether it was a targeted tact by the coaching staff or a coincidence of mistakes, the assistants made their voices heard on Wednesday.

In the bigger picture, the entire mini-camp is being ignored in favor of Mankinsmania. I can't tell you how tired I am of hearing about Logan Mankins. These threads, regardless of information from PFW, are a much needed breath of fresh air.

On a side note, these updates really get me pumped for training camp.

From the PFW article:

Quote:
–Ohrnberger, Larsen, Pat Paschall, Chris Taylor and the yoked up, Mohawked Thomas Clayton were among those doing extra sprints on their own after practice. And if you want to keep track of these kinds of things, Robinson, Slater, Farnham, Wheatley, Mesko and Welch were the last guys to leave the field after post-practice work.
I'm curious to see which of these guys will do this on a regular basis. Interesting that Mesko, despite all signs pointing to him having a job locked up, puts in extra time.

"Moss asked Tom Brady, who was also standing there, to pose as a defender while Moss showed Jenkins the proper technique."

Typical Moss. Picks slow, not agile Brady to pose as a defender just to make himself look good in front of the rook!
