Jerod Mayo moving with confidence on the field.

...a short pass in the right flat to running back LaMont Jordan, but Mayo charged into the area and hit Jordan as the ball arrived, with the pass falling incomplete. It was an example of how Mayo’s speed might be able to help the Patriots, specifically in sub packages.
Then later in the session, with the Patriots doing 11-on-11 work in the red zone, quarterback Tom Brady split running back Kevin Faulk out wide to the left side. Brady saw that Mayo was flexed out to cover Faulk and
obviously liked the matchup – a linebacker on Faulk is usually enticing. But Mayo held his ground, running with Faulk stride for stride down the sideline as Brady’s pass sailed over Faulk’s head, incomplete.
