Remember TB80 got a whole week of coaching DD up close and personal well before the draft, so there's that extra layer too. Might have been Troy that really convinced him to get a headstart on adding some muscle.I just finished watching the movie Air, and I've said this before, but I truly believe DD was my guy's pick. Loosely similar to Sonny Vaccaro convincing everyone else in Nike that MJ was THE guy to all in on, I think TB80 had to convince BB and Groh this was the pick to make.
Any observations on Sidey Sow? SI reported he is playing tackle. Was a ton of buzz around him after the draft, but things have been quiet since camp started.
Not based on the film from last year when we compared it. But Zappe's had a full offseason so it will be interesting to see how he looks from that standpoint when they finally play their first preseason game.Zappe has a bigger arm than Mac
No idea why they are giving reps to McSorley instead of Malik.agree 100%. For years I have been hoping for an athletic mobile houdini of a qb. I think Malik would be exciting. But clearly its not part of Bill's vision, having passed on Lamar Jackson and Jaylen Hurts.
My theory? Because Malik will be getting scout team reps during the season, while McSorley needs some good reps for when he latches on with another team after cuts. (And if he doesn't, will be on the shadow roster)No idea why they are giving reps to McSorley instead of Malik.
Hope you are right, although Perry was saying yesterday they like McSorley as a scout team QB. They might also just need Malik to get as many reps at possible at WR so he can be a viable option at both positions.My theory?

I remember Deion Branch said before the 2019 draft that the Pats should draft DK Metcalf or AJ Brown. Sigh.From now on I want Troy Brown to be the person in charge of drafting receivers. He needs veto power of BB or anyone else....Kraft needs to put his foot down...
There was some talking head on the radio, one of the afternoon douche bags, who said that Zappe did not have a strong arm. This D-Bag must have read it somewhere instead of actually using his own eyes. Zappe was lofting these 50-60 yard moon shots to Thornton after practice, maybe to shut up the D-Bags. Even on the short passes, Zappe was firing lasers....however Mac is still my Main Man.Zappe threw for over 6000yds his senior year. His arm works fine.
Arrrggggg!!! That is sooo frustrating....if the Patriots had listened, Brady would still be here....I remember Deion Branch said before the 2019 draft that the Pats should draft DK Metcalf or AJ Brown. Sigh.
Ugh, Malik is going to have a tough time making the cut. Not impossible, but tough. The best we can hope for is that he can make it to the Practice Squad. I really hope that the Patriots can figure out a way to keep him; it sure would be fun to spring the option on the Jet or 'FinsHope you are right, although Perry was saying yesterday they like McSorley as a scout team QB.

People are underestimating the fact that most of the league passed 2x on Metcalf because of the bad reports.Arrrggggg!!! That is sooo frustrating....if the Patriots had listened, Brady would still be here....
Get in line...if he's Starting we're in trouble.Count me as a person not looking forward to McDermott as our RT. Can't believe we might have to endure another year of him on the right side. Was not able to get out there against edge rushers.

(It seemed like Demario Douglas was the star of camp on the offensive side of the ball. I found it interesting that Troy Brown spent a lot of time talking to Demario. hey seems to have exactly the same body size which might lead one to believe...we can only hope.)
Douglas needs more work than the others who are likely to make the roster.(It seemed like Demario Douglas was the star of camp on the offensive side of the ball.

Is he playing the in slot?
