Patriots Training Camp- Tuesday August 16th

Some early signs that J. Jones-Mills-M. Jones is going to be the second coming of Butler-Ryan-Coleman in 2015 in terms of CB going from a liability before the season to a pretty good unit.

Curious if all the run stuffs are against McCaffrey or a Special Teams only player

I love the potential pairing of Jon Jones/Mills on the outside. Mills is solid all-aroubd but lacks speed. Jones has blazing speed and toughness,great tackler just dont match him up with very tall wrs,especially in RZ,where speed can be negated.It's all predicated on Marcus Jones (also a burner) playing well in the slot. Suddenly the cb group is much faster. So far so good.

Great news!!!

Sounds like a rough day for Smith. Good to hear the D making life difficult for another team's O. This unit may just be better than the sum of its parts, or maybe we've just been undervaluing some of those parts.

I think a combination of both

Really Jonnu not expecting much from Assiassi.

The rise of Marcus Jones and Myles Bryant makes me wonder what's going to happen to Mitchell and Butler. I know the latter two are outside CB and the former two are slot CB, but I can't imagine they'll keep both of them just as outside CB depth if they aren't starting. Probably depends a lot on how confident they are in Jack Jones as outside depth.

Per Unfiltered: no tackling but lots of hard hits with shoulders

A BEAST!!!! It's not only our O-Line that can't block him.

Maybe Judon went to take a leak...

Definitely Marcus, still not sure of Bryant. I know he's getting top reps at punt returner, but going to be interesting to see where he is on defense, especially with Wade coming on.

Can't wait to see the #1 Offense in action Meyers seem to be having a strong camp. Meyers could really benefit with other guys drawing tougher coverage.

Scuffle with Wilkerson...punches thrown. Lots of players. Bourne and Wilkerson to the locker room.
