I was at Training camp this mourning. Highlight to me was the contact between Eckel and Mayo. Yesterday Mayo got the better today it was Eckel. it was the drill with no DB and no WR as they work on the fits in the running game. Mayo went to fill a gap and Eckel met him and put him down. Really nice contact. After the play Mayo was grabbing his hand and got me nervous turns out Eckel knocked Mayo's contact out (I didn't know Mayo had bad eyes).

other notes:

Faulk made the catch of the day a one handed lefty snag by the sidelines (no defense though). He than gave us a scare later as he limped out of a play, he didn't leave and with less than 40 min. left I figured he would be down but he returned for a play and afterwards you could see him give a nod to Fears which appeared to me as though he was nodding I'm OK.

Mayo looked OK despite getting blown up by Eckel. For all those wondering why I like Eckel so much this is it, he plays TC like he should be like he has something to gain by giving a little extra and it winds up being some added contact.

Chad Jack had a decent practice nothing special no real mistakes. But just seeing him on the field reminds of why we have high hopes for him. He is in as good shape as anyone and he is fast. He looked smooth in the some of his position drills. I really think if he is healthy he will finaly shine.

Hobson made one nice play.

Tank was back at LB though I didn't see him make a play.

No Seymour and No Watson(but just seems like they are going easy on them). Kazcur returned.

I had heard a few good things about Guyton so far in camp and he didn't disapoint to day. He had a nice pick and looked good in the STs rotation.

Speaking of STs Washington really plays it up to the fans when it is STs time. He knows that is his role. Look for him to be the captain should Izzo be a casuality (not saying that is the case but seems an obvious choice).

Seems like Gisele is really rubbing off on Tommy as he didn't throw much again this mourning even tossing under hand at times.

Might go again tonight...thats all for now.

i heard the running backs coach was really angry at eckel from the day before since he was schooled by mayo, thomas and bruschi. it doesn't surpise me that eckel stepped up today.

where doesn lamont jordan fit in all this? is he just insurance in case morris or faulk go down?

"He’s the greatest quarterback to ever play the game. He goes from being a rookie that nobody is expecting anything from, to taking over with people saying he can’t do it, to winning three Super Bowls....It should already be obvious he’s the greatest quarterback to ever have played. "

Thanks - good stuff - you should change the title, some may not find this pot of gold based on the title.

Mostly glad to hear Jackson looking athletic as most do this far from an ACL tear. Gonna be some really tough cuts this year with some of these young LB and DB that I would hate to cut.

Nice report, thanks!

Thanks for the update.
Keep in mind that BB has been taking it easy on some of the vets during this camp. Brady said that he was going to limit his throwing this year. With four QBs in camp, why not? Seymour said that the coaching staff is taking it easy with him too. BB is just taking care of his guys.

Myron Guyton is back playing for the Patriots? I know Belichick likes to get players from his past jobs, but Guyton goes back to the Giants days and gotta be in his early to mid 40s.

That's why I don't like Eckel so much. Not the type of guy that I can root for.

Did you see much of O'Connelll ? The guys on PFW blog seem to think his passes were a lot more consistent than in the spring.

It's a good thing I'm not Belichick - I'd cut Evans and Eckel now that we have Jordan too and don't use a FB much. Save a roster spot. Then - and no-one will agree but I'll say it - I'd move Cassel and Gutierrez, going just with Brady and O'Connell. Save a roster spot. Brady never gets hurt to the point he misses a game and if our backup QB is gonna be young, I wouldn't waste a roster spot on the other two. Those two moves could keep, say, Guyton and Richardson on the roster.
