2016 Patriots Roster:

McCourty is the quarterback of the secondary, a co-captain of the team and the glue that holds everything together on the backend.

Rather than being a weakness, corner became a position of strength in 2015. Butler parlayed his SB heroics into a very solid first season of starting.

With many of the Sox on-hand to include skipper John Farrell, Edelman put on quite the show, blasting several homers over the Green Monster.

In this episode we previewed the upcoming Training Camp for the Patriots. We started off with our analysis of Patriots quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. We followed that up by sharing our three areas on offense and on defense that we are focusing on when we are at Training Camp. We ended the show by talking about topics related to the beginning of Patriots Training Camp.

The Patriots have two of the best LBs in the business with Jamie Collins and Dont’a Hightower. But each missed time in 2015 and the depth was a problem.

They added Terrance Knighton, Frank Kearse, and Markus Kuhn in FA, Vincent Valentine in the draft and Chris Long, this season’s reclamation project.

The team is banking heavily on the return of coach Dante Scarnecchia who was retired for two years. The health of this group is a big question mark

But make no mistake, Deflategate isn’t over. The players association braces for the fight that is coming when the next CBA comes due in 2020.

Another huge target at 6’6, 273 pounds, Bennett is a big body who can threaten the seams. He’s also another tremendous blocker in the running game.

Among the cognoscenti of national NFL writers, Edelman is considered a “system player”. While we differ with that, no one can argue his worth with the Pats.

we know Bill Belichick likes a running back by committee, which tends to keep those fantasy numbers down but keeps their legs fresh.

“Becoming a Bostonian has been unbelievable,” Edelman said. Boston is a gritty, tough town and a perfect match for me.”

Jabaal Sheard, Rob Ninkovich, Chris Long, Trey Flowers and Geneo Grissom give them plenty of options to set the edge, rush the passer or kick inside.

This episode centers around Miguel’s article entitled ” Why the New England Patriots will need to create more cap space and how they can do so”. I invite you to listen to Miguel discuss the Patriots Salary Cap.

The first public practice is scheduled for Thursday, July 28 on the Gillette Stadium practice fields. The team will practice from 9:15 a.m. – 11:45 a.m.
