Don’t look now, but Brace is turning some heads. He’s showing off power and surprising quickness. Amazing what actually practicing can do. This is the first of his three camps where Brace is on the field in the first week.

Under-the-radar highlight: DE Jermaine Cunningham with pass-rushing move of the day, an authoritative spin move on Marcus Cannon in 1-on1s.

Another day, another big practice for Brandon Lloyd. Toasts secondary deep on a couple routes. Will touch on route running in observations.

First round draft recap as it happened live for the Patriots.

Taking a temperature on the Patriots’ defense three days into training camp, there looks like legitimate hope and promise for a stronger front seven with multiple encouraging pass-rushing options. But the lingering question of whether enough reinforcements were added in the secondary remains.

What We Learned from New England Patriots Training Camp, 7/28 | Bleacher Report – Frenz
Good stuff from Frenz who made it to practice this weekend…
Jermaine Cunningham enters the 2012 season under a watchful eye, but on Saturday, he was playing with a purpose. He consistently put pressure on the quarterback in 11-on-11 drills, displaying a good mix of speed and power in his pass rush. He did show some inconsistent effort against the run but seemed to flip a switch whenever the offense was in a passing formation.
Dont’a Hightower was pegged as a do-almost-anything linebacker when the Patriots drafted him in April, including performing as a blitzer and pass defender. He looked comfortable doing both, nearly de-cleating running back Brandon Bolden on a re-route, and timing up a blitz as if he knew the offense’s snap count.
