(N/S) Brandin Cooks and Patriots mini-camp - New Orleans Saints - Saints Report - Message Boards
Interesting his comments on brady cooks deep ball not connecting, and the defense looking lost. All reports from mini camp I have read have been the opposite. Can anyone who attended mini camp confirm this?
"I've been living here in New England for the past year and because my wife's a patriots cheerleader, I've had the horrid misfortune of being dragged to Patriots mini-camp...fully clad in saints gear might I add
so I thought I'd do some scouting.
They seem to be using him in the slot more often than not along with edleman. That's gonna be a tough matchup. It's been at least a 95% completion rate on there own defense in practice.
Cooks and Brady haven't really formed good chemistry on those deep balls just yet but MAN Cooks is fast! I don't think Brady is declining but he's having the same problem Drew had under/over throwing.
Having said that, doesn't look like their defense has gelled yet and they look totally beatable. Looks like they've been playing alot of zone coverage to mask it. Malcom Butler definitively stands head and shoulders above the rest of their secondary, though.
Bellicheck smiles alot. Weird.
Of course this was just mini-camp and I fully expect them to be better during the season. If I'm forced to continue to go, I'll try to keep updating."
