Fire emojis make things burn.

Early camp overreaction:

Jimmy G Camp Comp pct:
2014: 30-40%
2015: 65-70%
2016 (1.5 practices ): 90%

Can't wait to see him in person tomorrow. Hopefully get a better idea with pads on because the only QBs I've seen complete passes at this rate in camp are Brady/Brees. In all seriousness it's nice to see a year by year improvement. From someone attended the first two weeks of 2014 camp he was atrocious.

It'll be at an all time high or go up in flames in 6-10 weeks.

Who were the Ends I wonder?

Don't they teach the 34 two gap disciplines around now almost every season? Then work into a 43 one gap and eventually the hybrid fronts we've seen more often over the past few seasons?

Brady to Dobson sounds sweet...is this the contract year when Dropson puts it all together??? Lets all hope so.

Interesting if they use a lot of 3 man fronts, considering there's absolutely no one of value at DT behind Brown, Knighton, and Branch (who's on NFI). However, 4 man fronts present the same depth dilemma with linebackers, since we have nothing behind Hightower and Collins.

Consider a fantasy world in which the Patriots aren't always in a sub package. Which front 7 would you prefer?

Collins - Hightower - (Freeny/McClellin?)
Sheard - Brown - (Knighton/Branch) - Ninkovich

Sheard - Collins - Hightower - Ninkovich
Branch - Brown - Knighton

I'd definitely prefer the second option to keep that bad 3rd LB off the field and put another good DL on.

Of course, in the real world, they'll always be in sub, making the 4-2 the most appealing option with the DTs rotating for freshness.

Regardless of alignment, I think we're in deep trouble if any of our top DT or LB miss extensive time.

Day 2 of real football

Don't want to get excited about Aaron Dobson but he seems to be having a very effective camp so far. Adding an effective Dobson and Bennett to this offense. Sheesh.

Don't forget good 'ol Chris Hogan.

Well, they certainly wasted no time grabbing Kuhn once available. Makes sense that they have a plan for him. Just hope he's not as bad as Giants fans say.
