Jakobi Meyers:

Having Edelman, Gordon, Harry, Thomas, Phillip Dorsett, Jakobi Meyers, et al at the position is certainly cause for optimism, and if it were 2012

Here are some Patriots thoughts on the Monday morning.

With Gordon’s addition, the team will have to carry an extra wide receiver to protect themselves in the event that Gordon’s inner demons resurface.

Harris the rookie running back from Alabama looked very good. He rushed 14 times for 80 yards and caught five passes for 23 yards.

Away from the smothering Jonathan Jones in team practices, Berrios has found room to move and made some nice plays in the passing game.

One of the more impressive players on the field today had to be rookie Joejuan Williams.. He had a couple of nice interceptions and had a few pass breakups

“I think there were plays – quick throws where the read was clear and the receiver was open, where he scrambled and extended the play,” Belichick said.

Stidham looked like a player that already has a firm grasp of the offense. He looked extremely poised went thru his progressions and delivered the ball.

Meyers is generating a ton of buzz around his play and his early grasp of the Patriots playbook but Berrios, has shown signs of life against the Lions

As the Patriots work with the Lions in joint practices out in Detroit, surprise receiver Jakobi Meyers continues to make a case for himself. Here’s a full rundown of what’s been written about him as he continues fighting for a spot in the offense.

Sony Michel looks good, now that he is back on the field and he and Damien Harris are getting more frequent looks in the passing game.

Brady threw to Meyers twice before he made his break, something that shows Brady already trusts him to be where he has to be when he has to be there.

Sony Michel continues to get a lot of looks in the passing game. During the 7-on-7 work, Brady went in Michel’s direction twice in the first four snaps.

Jakobi Meyers is having a pretty impressive camp along with Maurice Harris. He used his height to outleap Keion Crosson on a pass from Stidham.
