Camp Observations from Jeff Howe/Boston Herald

Camp Observations from Jeff Howe/Boston Herald

Couple of the ones that stuck out to me:

Defensive end Chandler Jones had the play of the day, diving to his right off the line to intercept Tim Tebow’s short pass to a running back toward the end of practice.

Collins got a few reps for Brandon Spikes, which could become a trend when the Patriots want to play a 4-3 in passing situations.

Wide receiver Kamar Aiken had a really solid day, catching a handful of acrobatic passes. There’s been a lot of attention focused on Thompkins as the darkhorse receiver to make the team, but don’t count out Aiken. 

I read Tebow has been catching passes from Mallet. What do you think? Also, how do you envision the Patriots will evolve their offense this year? And what if the prospects don’t work out as well as expected?

On Tebow – he did catch some passes today in a drill, but he also said he’s been with the quarterbacks in meetings. I still think his fate will be determined by how well he picks up the system as a QB. They’re giving him a chance to show other ways he can bring value, and he should take advantage of those as well.

Some things I think we’ll see from the offense: less no huddle, more balance with the running game, more explosive plays, less points/yards.

If the prospects don’t work out I think it’s the difference between a Super Bowl contender and a one or two and done in the playoffs team. Still think there will be enough talent by January to be competitive, but they need Amendola and at least one of the new guys to really break out.
