They knew what they wanted to do and went out and got the best players available, and some of the best players in the football league to do what they need them to do. I think they’re going to have specific roles for each one of them, specific role for Darrelle and specific role for Brandon that is going to allow their talent to shine. I think they’ll definitely be a top 2, top-3 secondary in football.

Setting stage for New England Patriots’ mandatory minicamp – ESPN Boston

Getting a late start here at Pats blog central, but it’s a good week and the last one with a glimpse of the team until training camp opens next month. Prepare yourselves for The Void!!

Good primer from Reiss on storylines to watch. More than anything it’s just about who’s out there because we won’t get much schematic or depth chart insight. The injured guys are the ones to watch and it should gives us an idea of who are likely to land on PUP to start camp.

[W]e took note during Thursday’s practice that Hightower was playing a bit more on the line of scrimmage, sometimes rushing off the right edge. When considering a starting linebacker trio of Jerod Mayo, Jamie Collins and Hightower in the base defense, I’ve previously projected Hightower to the middle in a Brandon Spikes-type downhill thumper role. But the Patriots coaches might see it differently, preferring to keep signal-caller Mayo in the middle, flanked by Collins and Hightower. That would give Hightower a chance to play on the line of scrimmage at times in an outside linebacker/defensive end-type role, and potentially rush the passer more. That could be best suited to his skill set, even though we haven’t seen Hightower do much of that the past two years.

If he is not a guy in the starting five, which I do think he’€™s capable of, but if he’€™s not, then would he make a good jumbo tight end? Absolutely,” Bloomgren said. “He’€™s a great athlete and he has the ability to do some really cool things.
