Patriots Minicamp 6-7-2022

There were good reports about Jack Jones. I think he’s going to be the next star CB who came out of nowhere.

He didn't come out of nowhere.

I'm surprised you are not adopting the pessimist line: "Mac Jones ineffective vs the starting defense!". That's right where Curran and Bedard went, dismissing everything but the final 11 on 11 where Mac got lots of pressure from the starting D vs the 2nd team OL and only went 2 for 4.

24 out of 22 is pretty darned impressive!

There is where guys like Butler and Jackson started to show there skills...so you never know.

Agreed. If one unknown / unexpected player shines, it can go a long way…

 

[farn]

Like all of your opinions.

Oh snap

"Sam Roberts is massive"...

For what, an elevator operator? Then yes he is.

For an NFL Defensive Tackle, then no he isn't.

I wondered what that meant too. How can he be massive for a NFL DT? Massive for a 6th round pick? Massive for a Div II player? No idea what that comment meant.

I don't like the idea of Wynn/Lose at RT... At All.

Glad to hear you like Wynn at LT.

BB said they were changing some stuff on offense so hold onto your hat. It looks like a bunch of outside zone runs with Strong and Stevenson, Nixon in the slot, and TT running fly routes on the outside. Speed, speed, speed for the next 4 years.

Coach looks like he's lost quite a bit of weight. He should have more energy and better cognitive function as a result.
Add two more wins!

Brady was a game manager at that time of his career though, he was NOT the QB he is now, by a long shot.
I'm guessing everyone can agree on THAT.
Bill was the Coach and Gm, he picked those old bums to bring on board, they weren't Superstars, yet they did ok.

There were quite a few FA additions who turned out to be key players. It probably wouldn't have mattered if Drew stayed as the QB though. He was far from a game manager.

This is the mini-camp thread. Go argue somewhere else.

Hear hear!

This has been a great thread. Thanks @Zuma

I just hope he (and by extension Mac) survives out there... The Wynn-to-LG ship has obviously sailed, barring injury to Strange, and I have stated in the past, before the draft, my approval of a return by Trent Brown to LT... So I suppose Wynn has nowhere to go but to RT... Unless this is merely an OTA experiment designed to give MP & BYates something to consider over the summer...

Tre Nixon making plays see ya! N'Keal Harry.

 

[PatsFan2]

Yodny Casjute was at left tackle...it would be great if Yodny Casjute gets it.

 

[Bourne Again Christian]

Tre Nixon making plays see you N'Keal Harry.

Nixon was Adams choice right?
Bill let Adams make that pick solely I believe.

Maybe we're about to see what Ernie saw in him...

A Patriots white slot receiver? How could it go wrong?

He looks half and half to me.
Which is not a problem at all I don’t believe he is Wes welker white.
