Big news on Monday was the Kayshon Boutte trade<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 I am not happy with the trade!\u00a0 Boutte had a rapport with Drake Maye, and they just threw that away. \u00a0\u00a0I don\u2019t like the fact that they traded him to a contending team in the conference, and I don\u2019t believe they got enough for him.\u00a0 If the Patriots want to be a draft-and-develop team, they don’t make this trade.\u00a0 More about the trade in the Comings and Goings<\/strong> section.<\/p>\n

Practice Report #21<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Practice was in full pads<\/p>\n

Absent:<\/strong> S Craig Woodson, P Bryce Baringer, RB Jam Miller, RB Lan Larison, , OT Marcus Bryant, EDGE Xavier Holmes, LB Khalil Jacobs, OL Mekhi Butler, OT Lorenz Metz, OL Ben Brown, DT Cory Durden<\/p>\n

WR Kobe Prentice and DB Ken Harris were waived.<\/p>\n

NFI\/PU Brenden Schooler \/ Harold Landry <\/strong><\/p>\n

Returned<\/strong>: Christian Gonzalez <\/strong>to full participation in Practice today.\u00a0\u00a0Channing Canada<\/strong> (red Non-Contact Jersey)<\/p>\n

Injuries: TreVeyon Henderson <\/strong>suffered an ankle\/foot injury and was seen on the sideline with trainers.\u00a0 The practice was conducted on the lower field and the turf was quite slick according to multiple players.<\/p>\n

Heavy work on Red Zone again today, according to Hunter Henry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Drake Maye <\/strong>was 11-for-13 in Two-Minute Offense<\/p>\n

Greg Van Roten <\/strong>did not take part in any of the team periods in joint practices with the Eagles. On Monday, the Patriots upped Van Roten\u2019s workload as he mixed in at both guard spots and center with the first-team offense. He impressed in 1-on-1s and also saw plays at center with Tommy DeVito\u2019s unit, where he had one low snap. \u2013 Brian Hines<\/p>\n

Van Roten<\/strong> was 2-2 in his one-on-one blocking reps. \u2013 Evan Lazar<\/p>\n

Quintayvious Hutchins <\/strong>was notably in the backfield on two occasions with the second-team defense. Hutchins then was on the first-team defense side during scout team work. \u2013 Brian Hines<\/p>\n

Leftovers from the Pre-Season Game <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Gabe Jacas<\/strong> had a late hit on the QB that took away a Kindle Vildor INT.\u00a0 He also got sucked in on a play action.\u00a0 He eventually came back and put pressure on Dalton and forced him to throw it into the ground.\u00a0 Jacas also rushed upfield and got blocked outside and taken out of the play.\u00a0 The Eagles ran right through the spot he abandoned.<\/p>\n

Efton Chism<\/strong> played very well.\u00a0 His route running is superior.\u00a0 On a 1st<\/sup> down throw to Kyle Williams on a comeback route, Chism was wide open across the middle on a delay.\u00a0 Williams was given the 1st<\/sup> down but it was close.\u00a0 I also thought Chism\u2019s downfield blocking was excellent, an underrated part of his game.<\/p>\n

Kyle Dixon <\/strong>came back from being out multiple practices with an injury and his contribution can\u2019t be overlooked.\u00a0 He had that big 4th<\/sup> down reception for a 1st<\/sup> down on the final drive.\u00a0 He was targeted twice and caught both balls<\/p>\n

Karon Prunty<\/strong> played very well with tight coverage and he has been doing well as a gunner on Punt coverage.\u00a0 He solidified his spot on the roster.<\/p>\n

Kraft Sports Production: <\/strong>The broadcast of the game was brutal.\u00a0 No play-by-play announcer, but three former players who constantly talked about the players and not the game itself.\u00a0 On one play, a run by James Hasty, they flashed up a graphic of #39 RB Myle Montgomery.\u00a0 Montgomery had been placed on IR before the Indianapolis preseason game #1.\u00a0 No down and distance and they were late to bring the cameras back to the action.\u00a0 They misidentified down and distance, failed to identify penalties against the Patriots, and failed to identify what was actually happening on the field.\u00a0 Scott Zolak, Devin, and Jason McCourty were just cheerleaders.\u00a0 I don\u2019t care what Steve Burton or Brian Hoyer were eating on the sideline.\u00a0 Who cares that Legal Seafoods was a new sponsor?\u00a0 It was great they fed the announcers with giant Lobster Rolls, but what does that have to do with what was going on the field?\u00a0 That broadcast was an embarrassment.<\/p>\n

Comings and Goings<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Patriots traded WR<\/strong> Kayshon Boutte<\/strong> to the Houston Texans for 2nd<\/sup> year Safety Jaylen Reed<\/strong> and a 2028 7th<\/sup> Round selection (from NO).\u00a0 \u00a0I am not happy with this trade.\u00a0 If the Patriots want to be a draft and develop team, trading away a young (25) and accomplished WR with a great downfield rapport with QB Drake Maye is not the way to build a team.\u00a0 \u00a0Boutte was 3rd<\/sup> in the league on completions of 20+ yards last season.\u00a0 Further they have traded Boutte to a contending conference rival.<\/p>\n

Jaylen Reed is a 6\u20191\u201d 212-pound Safety with 4.49 speed.\u00a0 \u00a0he played in 50 games for Penn State.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis versatility has been on full display in defensive coordinator Tom Allen’s system, where he’s thrived both as a traditional safety and in the hybrid Lion position\u201d per NFL Draft Buzz.<\/p>\n

Here are NFL Draft Buzz Observations<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Displays exceptional instincts when playing downhill, showing quick diagnosis skills and the ability to navigate through traffic while maintaining proper pursuit angles<\/li>\n
  • Brings the thunder as a tackler despite average size, consistently wraps up and drives through contact with impressive functional strength in the box<\/li>\n
  • Versatile chess piece who can legitimately line up at multiple spots – shows enough range for deep safety while bringing the lumber closer to the line<\/li>\n
  • Natural feel for run fits and gap integrity when playing in the box – rarely gets caught out of position and maintains disciplined edge control<\/li>\n
  • Accelerates through his tackles with excellent closing burst, showing the ability to break down quickly in space without sacrificing momentum<\/li>\n
  • Film study shows consistent improvement in reading quarterback eyes and pattern matching – growing comfort in zone coverage concepts<\/li>\n
  • High football IQ evident in pre-snap communication and alignment adjustments – often gets teammates in proper position<\/li>\n
  • Special teams demon who brings same intensity to coverage units as defensive snaps – projects as immediate four-phase contributor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Reed had 113 Special Team snaps in the 9 games he played in last season. \u00a0\u00a0Reed spent two stints on the IR last year.\u00a0 Last season he had a 59.9 Grade from PFF.<\/p>\n

    The only way that this trade makes sense is if Craig Woodson is hurt more significantly and getting ga player like Reed could offset that injury. \u00a0\u00a0The low value may have been because Boutte was not signed after this season.<\/p>\n

    Reed is not a Free Safety type and more of an in the box Safety \/ Big Nickel.\u00a0 He will not be a replacement for Kevin Byard.\u00a0 The good thing about Reed is the Patriots get three years of control on his rookie contract.<\/p>\n

    Patriots signed P Matt Haack<\/strong> and OL Dan Conerly<\/strong>.\u00a0 The corresponding moves are to release WR Kobe Prentice<\/strong> and DB Kenneth Harris<\/strong>. \u00a0\u00a0Neither UDFA was a threat to make the team.<\/p>\n

    The Patriots will be Haack’s 10th NFL team he has spent time with, including multiple stints with the Buffalo Bills and Arizona Cardinals. The 32-year-old was most recently with the Washington Commanders, spending training camp with them before being waived last Tuesday.<\/p>\n

    Both players were present in Monday’s practice.<\/p>\n

    Haack appeared in seven games last season with the Arizona Cardinals, where he averaged a whopping 51.3 yards per punt, good for third-most in the NFL.\u00a0 What will be key for Haack is the holding operation on Field Goals and Extra Points.<\/p>\n

    This has to be more than just \u201cnot feeling good\u201d in order to sign a punter for the game Thursday Night.<\/p>\n

    Conley, a BC grad, was with the team last year for two stints in Pre-Season as a UDFA.<\/p>\n
