1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:08,479 Speaker 1: This is the Patriots Training Camp Cast. The Patriots Training 2 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 1: Camp Cast is your source for all the news from 3 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: Patriots training Camp. Well, I do still watch the news. 4 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 1: Practice is over, but the writers of Patriots dot com 5 00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 1: have you covered? What did I miss yesterday? Now here 6 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 1: to review today's practice? The writers of Patriots dot com 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,760 Speaker 1: All right, August first, and the pads came on today 8 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: on Monday. This is might do so, joined by Paul Pirillo, 9 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: Evan Lazar Patriots dot com. We're here to get you 10 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: caught up on everything that happened today at Patriots practice. 11 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: And guys, the pads came on. We saw some physicality 12 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: amp up um, but a little bit films was felt 13 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: to me a little bit like the pace was back. 14 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: Start with you, Paul, you know what stood out to 15 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 1: you today? Just generally, Yeah, I agree. It was a 16 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: little bit of a slow you know, uh, you know, 17 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 1: ramp up again after they had a day off on Sunday. 18 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: But there was I thought some some physicality with the receivers, 19 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: in the in the defensive backs that you hadn't seen 20 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: at all because of you know, for obvious reasons, without 21 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: the pads on. I thought the one matchup in particular 22 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: that kept coming up to me was Malcolm Butler and 23 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: DeVante Parker. I thought those two guys when at each 24 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: other pretty good. I thought Parker made some big plays 25 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: over him, but rather than get down on him, I 26 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: thought Butler responded with a couple of nice plays. Later 27 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: on one when they got down in the red zone, 28 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 1: it looked like he came away with a nice breakup 29 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: down there. So it was a little back and forth 30 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: with those guys. I know, Evan, you watched a little 31 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: bit more of the of the big guys up front 32 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: as you guys you probably don't know yet. I really 33 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 1: don't have any interest in that, so I'm going to 34 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: leave that all to you. Evan. You were locked in 35 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: on the defensive offensive line. They're doing some kind of 36 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 1: combo blocking drills, some one on ones. What stood out 37 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: to you down there in those matchups today? Yeah, first 38 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: day it pads. You gotta watch the big guys, right, 39 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's what we're all like, you say, so, 40 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: kind of seeing the trenches. I think the number one 41 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: thing that stood out to me today was Christian Barmore 42 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: basically beating every single person that lined up across from him. Consistently, 43 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: and obviously this is coming off his rookie season. It 44 00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: just continues to be the same story with him, where 45 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: he is an absolute disrupt or, whether it's against the run, 46 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: against the past. A couple of welcome to the NFL 47 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: moments for a few Patriots rookies and one on ones 48 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,119 Speaker 1: against Christian Barmer, Cole Strange, Cody Russy learned the hard 49 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: way what it's like to go up against number ninety. 50 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: And if you look at the whole picture here for 51 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots defense, I would say Barmore is the one 52 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: guy that if he can elevate his game to a 53 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, all Pro type of player, it changes how 54 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: they're going to be dynamic, playmaking wise for the entire defense. 55 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: So also to it, a few guys come off pup today, 56 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: which a good sign. Jonathan Jones was supposed to call 57 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: him Julie's Peppers, not quite Jabrill Peppers, and finally Miles Bryant. 58 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: So three guys coming off seemed like they were kind 59 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: of getting involved a little bit. Always good to get 60 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 1: those guys off. Still, James White, I think, is the 61 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: only one remaining on the pup list. NFI list remains 62 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: Jason Hines and Andrew Stubert A couple. I mean, Paul, 63 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: you mentioned the big play. I thought that was the 64 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: play of the day, the deep pass to Parker. Parker 65 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: shook loose and got and got free. Overall, though, doesn't 66 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: really feel like I think we're all hoping for a 67 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: huge bounce back day today. Seems like the offense kind 68 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: of working through some things still and quite have the 69 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: didn't feel like it they alli sudden hit a new 70 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: gear today. Yeah, a couple things, I would say. The 71 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: first one from that big play that you were talking about, 72 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: the play of the day. It's the first time I 73 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: saw DeVante Parker really get open in this camp. And 74 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: then that was something that that opened my eyes, like okay, 75 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: here we go. No, you know, I get that he 76 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: has the you know, the strong hands and the ability 77 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: to make contested catches. We know that he has that, 78 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: but now that's something that was a little bit different today. 79 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: He got a step down the sideline and beat Butler 80 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: pretty good on that deep ball. So that was good, 81 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: and I agree with you. I thought there was some 82 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: periods of offensive success, but not anything sustained. Again, I 83 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: think it's still a work in progress. Nice to see 84 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: them more in the middle of the field, so you 85 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: could sprinkle in some of that downfield stuff not all 86 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: condensed into the red zone. I sensed a little bit 87 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: more frustration from Mac. You made the point during practice 88 00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: when we were watching Mike and we make a lot 89 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: of those witty comments back and forth to each other 90 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: about how you didn't see as much of the tennis 91 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: guy from Mac at this time around. You know, there 92 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: was some reports he was pretty pretty upset with him. 93 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: Weren't just reports. We saw it when him walking off 94 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: the field on Saturday after throwing that pick to Kyle Dugger. 95 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: Didn't really see a lot of that visible frustration. Today. 96 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: You could see him a little bit with the head 97 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: down at times, but bouncing back, continuing to fight. Parker 98 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: talked about that ability to sort of turn the page 99 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: immediately being important After the Mac and Row, it just 100 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: it feels a little more mature. I'm sure he's frustrated, 101 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: but he's just not being demonsibly showing it. And I think, 102 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: you know, guys kind of feed off that energy, so 103 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: I think that's a at least a good sign. It 104 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: hasn't been great. Terrence Mitchell coming up with a nice 105 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: interception Evan for you what else you know? Just overall 106 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: stood out in terms of the team periods. Well, I 107 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: thought to talk about Mac a little bit. When they 108 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: spread it out and they went shotgun, he hit Parker 109 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: down the sideline for forty fifty yard go ball there 110 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 1: when they were doing the stuff from under center. A 111 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: lot of the stuff that they're doing is I think 112 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: a little bit new for him, honestly, and that might 113 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: be some of the tweaks that they're making to the 114 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: scheme paying dividends there where he went over after he 115 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: threw the pick, Terrence Mitchell went over to Matt Patricia. 116 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: They had a conversation about what he saw, what Patricia saw, 117 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: and some of the concepts, especially from under center, seem 118 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 1: a little bit like a work in progress mentally for 119 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: Mac Jones right now. Whereas when they spread it out 120 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: and you see Alabama Mac right spread the field three 121 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: wide receiver and kind of let him go, he looked 122 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: comfortable pretty much again the entire practice, especially on that 123 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: throw to Parker, which I thought was probably his best 124 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: throw training camp so far, especially in eleven on elevens 125 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: for sure. And I will just real quick one last 126 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: thing I thought Bailey Zappi threw the ball really well today. 127 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: You know, he's been a little inconsistent with his accuracy, 128 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: but today I thought he had longer stretches of positive play. 129 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: Dropped one in and it was just a one on 130 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: one drill. It wasn't even a seven on seven, but 131 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: perfect throw to Taekwon Thorwton down the sideline, over the 132 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: outside shoulder on a deep ball. It was pretty good 133 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: coverage in still able to fit it in there. I 134 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: thought he was more consistently accurate today than at any 135 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: point in camp. Unfortunately I wrote about him on Saturday 136 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: soufesn't really matter, of course, That's always how it works 137 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: out right, It's all about me, you know. That One 138 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: final thing to mention too. You know we're just coming 139 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,799 Speaker 1: out to practice. We were Bailey, Sorry, Bailey, Jake Bailey 140 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: to stick with the Bailey's signing contract extension for a 141 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: few years. So that'll help the Patriots cap space overall 142 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: a little bit. We will be back tomorrow. Pads staying on. 143 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 1: Matt Patricia did mention before practice that the intensity was 144 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: ratchet up as much. You think the pads are coming 145 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: on and they're just gonna go for it. I think 146 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: that there is a little bit of easing into it. 147 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure tomorrow we'll get even more intense, and of 148 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: course we will be back to brief you guys on 149 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: exactly what went down. So that will do it for 150 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: us for today and we'll see you tomorrow after the 151 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: next practice.
