Moss, Samuel practice
By Mike Reiss, Globe Staff
Wide receiver Randy Moss has been spotted at practice. It's the first time since he was injured on Aug. 1 that Moss has been present for the start of a non-walkthrough session. Moss has been joined by cornerback Asante Samuel, who is accounted for during the media portion of practice for the first time since he ended his de facto holdout last Monday, reporting to the team, and signed his $7.79 million franchise tender last Tuesday. The Patriots are practicing in full pads today.

David Thomas is on the practice field too.

YES! Geno is my favorite player, good to see him back

But seriously it is great to see Moss back in practice. If Moss, Geno & Samuel will play Week 1 then things are looking up after a dismal few days.

Not sure I'd like to be a Jest fan right about now.

OK, looks like it's on for Sunday! With all the garbage news over the last few days including the cut down period, this is now the beginning of the team's 2007 trade mark. I'm hoping all on the field today can play without restrictions on Sunday including Samuel being available for nickel or other spot CB duties.

The changes the Pats have gone through since February are incredible for that short time frame, and those changes have players, coaches, fans, owners, and media champing at the bit.

I expect Samuel and Hobbs to be the CB on the first defensive play.

And I expect a 3 WR set of Moss, Stallworth, Welker, TE of Watson, RB Maroney to start the offense.

I am really starting to think BB was totally ******* with the Jets, with the Moss thing. It wouldn't surprise me if he has 8 catches for 100 plus yards and a couple of scores Sunday.
