  Speaker 1: This is the Patriots Training Camp Cast.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: The Patriots Training Camp Cast is your source for all
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: the news from Patriots training Camp.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Well, I do still watch the news. Practice is over,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: but the writers of Patriots dot com have you.
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: Covered what did I miss yesterday?
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Now here to review today's practice the writers of Patriots
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: dot Com.
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: All right, welcome into another edition of the Patriots Training
• 0:27
  Speaker 4: Camp Cast. I Mike do So, joined by Tamara Brown
• 0:30
  Speaker 4: and Paul Perillo and guys. It's been an active twenty
• 0:32
  Speaker 4: four hours here, and I think right off the top,
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: we've got to mention Christian Barmore, Patriots making announcement last
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: night that he's I guess, suffering from blood clots. You know,
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: significant issue. We've seen this happen in the past with athletes,
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: but it seems like Christian barmore status is now kind
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: of being put on hold for the indefinite future, which
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: is just a big blow I think to the defense.
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: And of course you want Christian to be healthy, that's
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: the biggest thing. But we talk about the team here, Tamara,
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: this is this is a big blow anyway you cut it.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: He's an important young player.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: He's very important. I feel like two days ago, I
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: was just saying, Wow, this guy has the caliber to
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: make it to the Pro Bowl this season. I was
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: so excited for him, especially after his contract and then
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: looking at the depth, Mike, you're always someone who's bringing
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: that up. With this defense, there's no one behind Judean,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: There's no one behind Barmore that you think could play
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: at his level. So I want him to be healthy,
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: I want him to be out there, and I'm also
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: thinking who is going to step up and fill his shoes.
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: So we jumped into practice and we got to move
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: on and you know, today's first day of pads, very
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: exciting usually, and we saw some one on ones Paul.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: But the big picture, I think that we watched practice separately,
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: so you know, we come to this without without conferring.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: But I thought an Okada for the number one offense
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: with Jacoby Brissett, we've settled kind of on the same
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: offensive line. I thought the run game particularly looked like
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: they hit a couple plays there. It wasn't overwhelming, it
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: wasn't oh, you know, they're just making plays left and right,
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: but it felt like the semblance of an offense out
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: there today.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I did think there were some times
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: I thought the cohesion was more in the seven on seven,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: but I do think there were some some runs they hit. Stevenson,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Kevin Harris had a little uh got a seam off
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: the left side on a play. So there were some
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: moments I thought. I thought it was a good first
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: step in pads. I thought there was some physicality, you know,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: for the most part, I thought it was kind of
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: a stalemate up front. I thought, uh, you know, most
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: of the runs were kind of met with with resistance.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: But I did like some of those plays that they hit.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: And then that kind of you mentioned the first offense
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: quote unquote the first offense. I thought that led to
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: some some plays for Jacoby Brissette. I thought this was
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: the most comfortable he's looked, you know, in training camp.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: So maybe some baby steps there, you know, for that group,
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: I think we'll get to. The group that followed with
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Drake May wasn't as much, but yeah, some some positive
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: science for preset.
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: Well let's jump right into its marre. I mean, I
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: just I from my vantage point, it just kind of
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: a tough day for Drake May and I thought there was,
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: you know, not a lot of protection up front. David
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: Andrews was also missing from practice, so I think a
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: little bit of the trickle down effect at center might
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: have affected that a little bit. But just not a
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: lot of big plays, you know, just it seemed like
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: Drake was kind of struggling today line problems. As I mentioned,
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: what did you think of Drake's performance today?
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I wasn't expecting another interception today obviously, you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: it went to Dugger again, who seems to always be
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: in the right place at the right time. It's going
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: to be a tough one for him, especially if guys
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: continue to go down or be missing from practice. But
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: I do want to touch on Leyden Robinson, another rookie
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: who I thought flash today on the offensive line. Haven't
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: really heard his name much throughout camp, but today he
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: had a great one on one against deechurch Wise. So
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: it's been interesting to see, like another rookie and how
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: they continue to emerge throughout camp.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Paul, what about you? What was your take?
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Just kind of on that second offense with May And
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: again they're rotating a lot of guys, especially like the
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: wide receiver tight end position, so he's working with different bodies.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: But but it just was clung out.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, just to me, I felt like, and this
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: is kind of a continuation that we saw a little
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: bit on Sunday. I just felt like he was a
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: little late with some of his reads, the double pumps
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: he was starting to see too often, and some late
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: throws to the outside, like we looks unsure of himself.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: So I mean, those are some things that he's going
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: to have to clean up. And I sort of talked
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: about this before camp started. What I want to see
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: is as camp goes on, something that I saw, say
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: on Monday or Tuesday, I don't see on Thursday at Friday,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: So we'll see how he takes that. I do think
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: it was a little choppy today for him and his receivers.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: I thought he had a couple of guys that he
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: sailed some balls on. You know, it might have been
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: others that weren't particularly open. So I think it's sort
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: of a work in progress for the entire group. It's quarterbacks, receivers,
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: it's the protection, it's everything. It's not just Drake May.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: And I do think when you're dealing with an artistic
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: quarterback like Drake May, it's going to take some time
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: for his wide receivers to learn him especially as the
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: plays break down, and that has happened, happened a lot
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: over the past couple of days, just learning him, figuring out,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: figuring him out, and knowing that the play is not
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: over even when the pocket breaks up.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so we did have Kaden Wallace back on a
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: left tackle, chooks a Kora four over on the right side.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: You know, I was able to catch a little bit
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: of the one on one. You know, I thought I
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: thought that Wallace did okay, held his own. You know,
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: a couple of reps that I just saw going. It
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: seemed like Guce got around him. Jenning Z, I thought
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: he held his own. Fifty four Morgan, I thought he
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: held his own. But you know, there's a thing to
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: kind of watch quickly and it's just in a bubble.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the one on ones a tough to gauge. I thought. Overall,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: you know, it wasn't terrible today. I didn't think the
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: offensive line, you know, they had some breakdowns obviously, But
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: the bigger thing for me was the lack of discipline
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: on offense in general. There were a lot of mistakes,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: a lot of false starts, a lot of pre snap penalties.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Talked to Austin Hooper about it afterward, and he just
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: talked about, you know, these are things that don't require talent,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: you know, being able to stay on side. And it
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: got to the point where Mayo sort of sent the
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: whole offense running with one rep left. You know, there
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: was the very last set of eleven on eleven's and
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: it was four places for were set four place for
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: may and it was going to be four plays, and
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: after the third play with Joe Milton, he sent everybody running,
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: and so that you know, clearly tells you there was
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: some frustration from the coach. Now, Hooper thought that was
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: a really good sign from Mayo that you know, you
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: you gotta get this stuff straightened out now, and you
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: can decide, and Hooper had a colorful way to say it,
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: you can decide if you want to be a cross
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: country team or a football team. I'd rather be a
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: football team. But if you're not going to do the
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: things that you're supposed to do, you're gonna at least
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: be in good condition.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Paul and I liked that he did that when Joe
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Milton had the ball, like because he could have easily
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: been like, okay, well you know this is our third
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: third string quarterback going in at third in for these reps,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: and you could have let it slide, but he let it.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: He didn't let it keep going, and he made them
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: run during that.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and it felt like it kind of had built up.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: I mean there's been there stars, Yeah, false starts. There
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: were a lot of laps run today, a lot of
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: laps run, and a couple other housekeeping things. Of course,
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: I didn't love seeing this. Jabill Peppers got banged up.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: Looked like he went over to the trainer's table, tried
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: to come out and give it a go, look frustrated,
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: went back in. He did not finish practice. We had
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: a little scuffle. Josh Ujay I think got sent off.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: And probably the thing that most people are wondering about is,
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: you know, we're watching first padded practice. Matthew Judon comes
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: out early before he is not in pads. He's out
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: to just you know, throw footballs to the fans like
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: he usually does. That preceded then we caught a sight
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: of a conversation with Jial Mayo. Wed later I caught
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: sight of him out in conversation with Elliott Wolf and
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: Matt grow He ended up walking off the field. I
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: didn't get a great vibe. It's hard to tell what
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: was being said. We're not lip readers or anything like that,
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: but it just doesn't seem like the you know, I
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: think when we started camp it was I'm here, you know,
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: we're gonna figure it out, and you know, it just
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: it seems like maybe there's some sticking points or something,
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: because it seems like there's something going on there.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: Not a great sign.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah, yeah, it's not a great sign. And I
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: just wonder too, does it help when you're signing someone
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: like Jabil Peppers like forty eight hours ago, seeing another
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: guy get signed when you're still waiting for yours? Does
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: that build even more frustration? Obviously? I feel like on
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: social media he posted that he's happy for him and
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: he felt like he deserved it, but it's got to
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: be tough to see yet another contract being signed.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So for sure, there's a lot going on, and
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: we'll see what happens with Pepper's David Andrews. We mentioned
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: was out little trickle down effect. I think they're already
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: kind of hurt there at Center without Jake Andrews, So
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: you know, some shuffling and this is what happens you
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: get into camp, guys start getting banged up. But hey,
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: we still just got into pads today. We've got we
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: think another pads day tomorrow before and off day on Wednesday.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: So I think, to Paul's point, looking at some of
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: the mistakes, some of the things to clean up, maybe
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: tomorrow they can come out, limit those pre snap penalties,
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: not hurt themselves, and maybe they can have a day
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: where they'll grow Tomorrow.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, and it was good to see Antonio Gibson out
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: there today, especially with him starting camp. You know one
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: what was it the NFI.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: List seeing run from him today?
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, seeing him dressed and actually participating was a good sign.
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: All right, Well that's going to do it for us
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: for another Patriots training camp cast. And folks, we've got
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: five practices down. We got i think eight more to go,
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: thirteen totals, so we're cruising right along. Pads are on,
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: so it just got a little bit more fun, so
• 8:38

• 8:41
