1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: After three straight days and pads, the Patriots were back 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: to a walkthrough on Thursday. Still some takeaways, Let's break 3 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 1: it down. Welcome everybody to the Patriots training camp cast. 4 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 1: And yes, after three days of heat and pads today 5 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: a little cooler walk through pace. Still a lot of 6 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 1: work though team periods. You can see, Paul, they're kind 7 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: of set in the stage as they continue to build, 8 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: getting ready for the team drills, calling plays, you know, 9 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: the middle of the field, all that stuff. Seems like 10 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: that's where they're headed, getting the putting, putting it all together. 11 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 2: And finishing it all up with a little two minute 12 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 2: drill at the very end. But to me, the big 13 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 2: takeaway is Mac Collins, you know, coming off pup and 14 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 2: being directly involved right from the start. Obviously a walkthrough, 15 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 2: so there's not really much of a ramp up period 16 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 2: for contact and whatnot. No pads, certainly no intensity. But 17 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: he was out there the first group, you know, out 18 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: at the X. You know you like that mic right, 19 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 2: I like the X right. So he was getting plenty 20 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 2: of reps. But yeah, good to see him back. 21 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, interesting player. I've mentioned a couple of times we 22 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 1: were out in Vegas when Josh was out there. We 23 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 1: watched him joint practices with him and he was very involved, 24 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: even with DeVante Adams and Hunter Renfro, So it seems 25 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: like Josh has a plan for him. I was a 26 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 1: little surprised too to see him hop right in. Otherwise 27 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: hard to really get a read on some of the returns. 28 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Carlton Davis was back out there. We haven't 29 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: seen him since last walkthrough, so yeah, he's still working back, 30 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: but he did. 31 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 2: Get reps in there. He was with Alex Austin a 32 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 2: lot and some of the stuff that they did, so 33 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 2: maybe he's a little bit closer to returning as well. 34 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: I'd say one notable one though was Garrett Bradberry, who 35 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: missed yesterday and continues to test the center depth a 36 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: little bit. Ben Brown taking the top reps overall. But 37 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: otherwise you want to read too much into some of 38 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: these guys that we weren't out there. Some new tight 39 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: ends that they signed yesterday as well, so almost a 40 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: little bit of a reset day, and I would say 41 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: for us, Paul, a little bit of a reset day. 42 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 2: Oh you guys got what you wanted. It wasn't you know? 43 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: Ninety five degrees and Sonny. You know, God forbid, it'd 44 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: be summer in the summertime. You know, we got it 45 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 2: down into the sixties and you know, with a with 46 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 2: a heavy breeze and you know, kind of uncomfortable. But 47 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: that's okay. 48 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: You guys got it the way. You know, it was 49 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: nice not to be sweating through my nice to get 50 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: in here. And I feel like I have heatstroke. But Paul, 51 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: let's take this chance though, as it is a little 52 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: bit of a slower day, just to look back at 53 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: those three day three days of pads and you know, 54 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: maybe just a couple of players to you that that 55 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: have maybe stood out that you weren't expecting. 56 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's something that you know, knowing it was 57 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: a walkthrough, I sort of gave that some thought. You know, 58 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,399 Speaker 2: I think two receivers would would jump to the top 59 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 2: of my list of Mario Douglas and Kaisha on booty. 60 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 2: And it's kind of ironic because we just talked about 61 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: Holland's returning. He immediately jumped into the booty slot, So 62 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 2: I wonder if that's going to be something to keep 63 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 2: an eye on. I will say those two receivers would 64 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 2: would would top my list as guys that I thought 65 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 2: would been active. They've been a part of the first 66 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: group with the team in all the team periods, every day, 67 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,839 Speaker 2: every period. So Booty I think would be more note 68 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: of those two, because I think most people felt like 69 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: Douglas would have an inside track on that slot position. 70 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: Interesting with matc Collins as well though, and Douglas said 71 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 2: this earlier in camp. Josh McDaniels shown him tape of 72 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 2: a lot of different guys, you know, playing this lot 73 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 2: different body types. Matt Collins is one of the guys 74 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 2: he showed in the slot. He'd moved to the slot 75 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,959 Speaker 2: at times today in the walkthrough too, So I don't 76 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 2: think you'd just say exclusively it's Mac Collins on the outside. 77 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 2: I think Josh McDaniels probably wants to move him around 78 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: a little bit too. But those are two guys that 79 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 2: stood out to me. 80 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, Hollins has some length to which just makes him 81 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: stand out a little bit in that group. I know 82 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: you've been high on Caleb on Chase on as well. 83 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: We've mentioned him a little bit on PUP as well 84 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: as these camp casts. But going into the season, I 85 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: was concerned, how are these new edge guys going to 86 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: come in and fit in. Are they going to be 87 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: able to get some pressure? And so far Chason's been 88 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: really dynamic, got a lot of pressure. One other thing 89 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: I'll mention too, not even a player, but listening to 90 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: the Milton Williams yesterday talk about this new scheme a 91 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: lot different, I think than what we've seen from Bill 92 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: Belichick and those defenses of the past where there's a 93 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: lot of breaedom react. It seems like now the theme 94 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: of this defense is going to be attacking. Just not 95 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: a lot of sit there, try to figure out what 96 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: they're doing, seaball, get ball. I like that, especially for 97 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: guys like Williams Christian Barmo. 98 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: It's kind of ironic because I like it too, and 99 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 2: I'm right with you. I always like to sort of 100 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 2: try to disrupt timing and not as much react. But 101 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 2: you know, on the flip side, I'm like Bill Belichick 102 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 2: is widely regarded as one of the defensive masterminds of 103 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 2: his time, and he's obviously had a lot of success 104 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 2: playing defense the way that you described. But I'm with you, 105 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 2: I'd rather go after the quarterback. I'd rather, you know, 106 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 2: be aggressive and if you get beat, you make the offense, 107 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 2: execute quickly at a high level as opposed to you know, methodically, 108 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: you know, paper cutting, you you know, on the way 109 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 2: down the field. So I'm excited to see what it 110 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: entails with Mike Rabel and Terrell Williams in this new 111 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 2: attacking kind of style. But all of the players, not 112 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 2: just Milton Williams, all of the players have talked about it, 113 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 2: and I am excited to see it. 114 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, Harold Land think he's he's going to be a 115 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: key piece there on the edge. He was back today, 116 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 1: got a veteran day of rest yesterday, Paul As we 117 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: look a little bit forward here. The team's going to 118 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: have the weekend off, but not before they're an in 119 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: stadium practice. A lot of speculation going on because we've 120 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: heard Mike Frabel said it's going to be a scrimmage 121 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: quote unquote, a little scrimmage with a stress on the 122 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: little We've seen this practice in the past where it's 123 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: really about getting the whole, like game day function down, 124 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: like here's where the tunnel we come out, this is 125 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: where we stand for the coin toss, this is where 126 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: we go at halftime. Also working for the coaches calling 127 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,119 Speaker 1: plays in I said to Evan. When we were watching 128 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: practice today, I think Friday night's going to be maybe 129 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: this what we saw today, but increase the voltage by 130 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: about fifty percent, and then that's what I'm expecting tomorrow night. 131 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 2: I wouldn't expect to see, you know, a rock em 132 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: soccer match, you know, a full scale scrimmage, but I 133 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: would expect to see the team's on the sidelines and 134 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 2: only eleven players on each side of the ball on 135 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 2: the field. Are as opposed to milling around like you 136 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: get during a regular practice, you know, pads, I would think, 137 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,799 Speaker 2: But I'm not expecting to see tackling to the ground 138 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 2: or anything like that. You know, maybe a higher intensity 139 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 2: than we've seen in the in stadium practices in the 140 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 2: recent past, but you know, I wouldn't think by much. 141 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: As we looked the next week, Paul, what are you 142 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: kind of looking for? We've seen now. I think it's 143 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: like seven practices in the bag. We'll have another one 144 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: tomorrow night. We'll have joint practice next week against the 145 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: Commanders on Wednesday. But I think the Patriots are going 146 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: to have another physical practice on Monday, walk through Tuesday, 147 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: and then they'll get into it with the Commanders. Without 148 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: getting to nitty gritty, I mean, I'm putting on spot, 149 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: But what are you kind of feeling as we get 150 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: into next week? What are you most curious about? 151 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 2: Want to see? Yeah, I want to see these guys 152 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 2: starting to repeat the performances, you know some of the 153 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 2: you know, Alex Austin's another guy that I've been somewhat 154 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 2: impressed with through the first week. Can he, you know, 155 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 2: make it a second week? And you know, Bill Belichick 156 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 2: used to say all the time, it's it's much about 157 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 2: being able to practice consistently and being out there all 158 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 2: the time. And the attendance has been pretty good. We're 159 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 2: starting to get somewhere and tear right, who can get 160 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 2: back out in the practice field, who can stay on 161 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 2: the practice field. Those are the kinds of things I'll 162 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 2: be looking for on a Monday in particular, because you're right, 163 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: Tuesday will probably be a walk through and then before 164 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 2: you know it, Washington will be here. 165 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well that's going to do it for this PP 166 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: and Theduce edition of the Patriots Training Camp cast. But 167 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: we will be back tomorrow on Friday night, be a 168 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: late one. I think practices due to end about seven thirty, 169 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: So if you're looking for this next edition of the 170 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: Patriots Training Camp Cast. Be on the lookout late Friday night, 171 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: and we'll be right back at it next week.
