PATRIOTS TRAINING CAMP Training Camp Day 11 - August 5

It's still early.

If Polk looks good, even against second teamers, he will have an opportunity to stay.

Or perhaps they trade him, but he will have value. If he looks good.

Seems like Javon Baker is ahead Vrabel has really Coached him up. Him being with the Ones yes; even in a walkthrough @Steve102 says something.

yeah, i read a post about Dugger being pressed in camp... lost track of it before i remembered to post it...

listen, i know the injury excuse, but Dugger did not have a good year last year... he very much should be concerned about getting passed on the depth chart... and with the cap hit he has, 15m this year, 17m next... he is approaching 30... he might find himself on the bubble one of these days...

do i think he will be cut this year? no... but he has no guaranteed money left after the 2025 season... that is a very real warning sign for his future prospects on this team...

Well then Pape, if I were a betting Man, I'd say that Dugger and Onwenu and Stevenson are gone next Year.

Fam: call me crazy but I think Chism makes it; he's the perfect Slot back-up for Pop Douglas. I think we go WR heavy in the final cut down Chism has stood out: can't see McDaniels parting ways with a decent looking Slot WR.

Onwenu? yeah, i wouldn't be so sure about that one... A we have seen, OLmen are needed... wouldn't be casting off a guy like onwenu so quickly...

Dugger, if he has a rebound year could be part of the short time future... Rham? his tenure is going to be based on the efficacy of Trey Henderson as the lead back...

 

[JohnJH]

Green bay?

You're on the list winger...

I live less than 6 Miles from Lambeau Field (on the East Side of The Fox River). When my Friends Post Packers stuff on FB, I usually comment with something to the effect of: Green Bay has an NFL Team? It's not mean, it's just because the Packers are so important here it's somewhat comical when someone points out that the Packers existence is of little to no importance to them. I don't dislike the Packers at all. As long as they're not playing the Patriots, I wish them the best.

It's a good coaching move.

Baker has earned the spot so far, but anything close to a tie will go to Polk.

Or maybe Polk will be traded. But if Polk looks good it won't be a cut.

 

[PatsFan2]

7 WRs are possible.

Diggs - Pop - Boutte - Williams - Chism - Baker and Polk.
I think we go with Six with roll the dice on the last two.

 

[JohnJH]

Onwenu? yeah, i wouldn't be so sure about that one... A we have seen, OLmen are needed... wouldn't be casting off a guy like onwenu so quickly...

Dugger, if he has a rebound year could be part of the short time future... Rham? his tenure is going to be based on the efficacy of Trey Henderson as the lead back...

I suspect that Wallace is the plan for RG as that was his best projected position before he was drafted. That's my main reasoning behind that.

 

[Steve102]

7 WRs are possible.

Doubtful. 5-6 with maybe one on the PS.

 

[JohnJH]

Onwenu? yeah, i wouldn't be so sure about that one... A we have seen, OLmen are needed... wouldn't be casting off a guy like onwenu so quickly...

Dugger, if he has a rebound year could be part of the short time future... Rham? his tenure is going to be based on the efficacy of Trey Henderson as the lead back...

If Henderson was about 10 lbs heavier, but with the same speed and athletic ability, He could be an every down back. I think he's more than just a 3rd Down Back, but I suspect they'll draft Rham's replacement in the 2026 Draft.

 

[PatsFan2]

7 WRs are possible.

That a lot to allocate to one position and they will not all dress. LTD I know like me you like WR's: check out that Texans Roster they have like 14 WR's. @Steve102 maybe I'm cheering for the wrong team.

Wallace needs to step up his game before that happens

It appears there were some premature reports of the Pats signing Bryce Ganious during the initial wave of UDFA signings back in April, when he was just brought into rookie minicamp for a tryout.

Patriots Sign 19 Players in the Undrafted Free Agent Market

The New England Patriots made 12 total selections in the 2025 NFL Draft and they were just as active in the undrafted rookie free agent market after the Draft.

Here is every player listed on the tryout sheet during the New England Patriots' rookie minicamp.

NESN ranked him as 17th (out of 18) in likelihood to make the roster as a UDFA, when they thought he was signed.

Ranking Patriots (Expected) UDFAs’ Chances Of Making Roster

The Patriots did their homework before the 2025 draft, adding a litany of players (drafted and undrafted) who could contribute this season.

Ganious is a good athlete, but he never graduated to anything more than a rotational role at Wake Forest. It’ll be difficult for him to receive any meaningful reps this summer.






So now the questions is, who was released to make room for Ganious?
