Fourth straight session of 1-on-1s – New England Patriots Blog – ESPN Boston

It’s getting a little steamy in here…

Standout performers DE Marcus Benard – One rush stands out; he lines up over the outside shoulder of guard Chris McDonald (3 technique), which is different for a 6-foot-2, 260-pound end, and proves too quick at the snap as he surges through with relative ease. In addition, Benard’s first rep while aligned on a wide split at defensive end features high-impact contact with right tackle Sebastian Vollmer, as Vollmer gets his hands on Benard but Benard attempts to spin free to the inside. A real good matchup, with Benard’s explosion and Vollmer’s power meeting head on. Benard continues to get after it, later looping around fellow end Jason Vega in 2-on-2 combination work to apply some pressure.
