How Drake Has been Supported this Offseason!

[One-If-By-Sea]

He isn't taking the route I would by staying away from the team and being a diva, but hey he dropped to Rd 6 for a reason, despite being a Rd 2 talent.

I don't think he is being a diva. He doing what is in his interests. It is a business. Trainers outside the Pats organization can be better.

those guys want contracts too!

Drake and Gonzo know they are getting contracts. Boutte isn't IMO. Not a parallel.

Just making a point that there's always better ways to get a players point across.. Boutte will see a contract I can see him being traded to NO his home town!

I think Boutte believes the outside training is superior and will further his career more. I doubt there is any animosity.

Makes sense. As you point out lots of players trained outside the facility randy did as well.. I just notice that the way Boutte was around last season as opposed to this is noticeable that is all.. I like Boutte and want to see him do well here or elsewhere in the league..

I agree. Great moves and great hands.

Yes. He's absolutely a feel good story though. I'm interested to see what The team does with pop.. as Vrabel mentioned during the combine he wants pop more involved than he was last season..

Yup. If it ain't broke don't fix it. I think the old dink and dunk offense is vital for Maye to learn especially with his Oline issues. I didn't see alot of Maye's offseason preparation and training yet. I really enjoyed watching the tips he's learning. Well we will see, the offseason is young. He's gotta be like Rocky, leave the wife alone and fully dedicate to correcting his flaws.

Yes! I believe Drake can operate in that type of offense but what I see happening here is Vrabel's taken a page out the 04 patiots book.. the additions of R. Gilliam and Julian Hill are essential to the line of scrimmage.. the offense projects to be more multiple.. look at Buffalo they have a formidable running game and it all starts up from with thier offensive line and blocking TEs and WRs.. being able to run the ball eating clock will allow the WRs favorable match ups and just allows the offense to flow seamlessly.

Pop is athletic but does not seem to know the offense - we have seen that before with Brady too.

Yes. I believe he will be better this upcoming season. Josh knows what he can/can't do with pop in the offense having a full season to see this.
