The New England Patriots could have a longer offseason workout program than usual even if they never take the field for practice this spring.
The Patriots had the opposite problem, with the caveat that a ’problem’ for the Patriots’ defense still had them best in the league. Their DVOA against wide receivers in the slot was -33.8%, which fell to -22.0% when you include everyone else. Ranking Tom Brady’s 41 best receivers during his 18-year, 9-Super Bowl run with Patriots In honor of Tom Brady being a 41 year old in the Super Bowl, let’s look at his 41 best pass catchers. The Patriots struck out in free agency on slot receivers Adam Humphries, Cole Beasley and Golden Tate. But their interest in those players, as well as Julian Edelman’s age (32), suggest that they could look to add a slot option in the draft to compete with last year’s sixth-round pick, Braxton Berrios. Berrios, whom the Patriots selected with last year’s sixth round pick, adds value as a slot receiver and punt returner. At 6-foot-3, Inman could add an option outside the numbers. Harris, also 6-foot-3, caught one touchdown in his three previous seasons with the Redskins. The NFL’s best slot receivers, No. 5: Julian Edelman, Patriots Edelman is tough, he’s quick and he understands how to sneak in and out of various coverage concepts.
The NFL and NFL Players Association have agreed that the offseason workout period can extend until June 26. That’s roughly a week or two later than it usually wraps up, especially for the Patriots who typically cut it early.
Training camp is set to start a little bit later than normal, but NFL teams usually get about six weeks between the end of OTAs and minicamp and the start of training camp. If the offseason workout period extends until June 26, then that would leave only be five weeks before training camp is set to begin.
Granted, this year is a little bit different since players usually have to go through weeks of spring practices. But it’s still a shorter break in between NFL activities.
Watch above and read below for this week’s mailbag.

If we see one of the UDFA WR step up in training camp is Sanu cut for cap space? Or stay with the veteran?
I understand why there are so many questions about Mohamed Sanu getting cut. If the Patriots release him, they’d free up $6.5 million. I just don’t think it’s realistic, and there are other ways to free up cap space.
When the Patriots dealt a second-round pick for Sanu, they were doing so, in part, because he had two years left on his deal, and it’s not like they’re now caught by surprise by his 2020 cap hit. I don’t want to say the Patriots are going to justify the trade by keeping Sanu in 2020, but I also think the investment they made by trading away that second-round pick will play into their decision to ultimately keep him this season.
Basically, the Patriots knew what they were signing up for when they traded for Sanu. And just because he struggled in half of the 2019 season — while dealing with an ankle injury — doesn’t mean the same will happen in 2020. If Sanu winds up being a solid No. 2 or 3 receiver, then he’s worth his $6.5 million salary.
The only way I see him getting cut is if he really struggles in training camp and the preseason and gets significantly outperformed by multiple other players.

Any thoughts on if Sony will be better in a Brady less offense. Can they change there running game looks with stidham being more mobile. I loved Sony at Georgia. Always curious if the Georgia run game differs from Pats.
Unless something dramatic happens this season, then the Patriots will always be a team that uses a combination of zone- and power-rushing schemes.
With Jarrett Stidham’s mobility, I could potentially see the Patriots’ offense getting more “modern” with run-pass options and zone-read looks. Those could potentially help Michel from an unpredictability standpoint. A healthy fullback, whether that’s Danny Vitale, Jakob Johnson or a tight end-convert, will also help Michel.
As long as Michel can beat out Damien Harris for the lead back job, then I believe he’ll have a bounceback season. I, personally, would like to see what Harris can offer. I think Michel mostly takes what’s given to him. If Harris can do a better job of creating yards on his own, then he could be an upgrade in the backfield.
@Pats62
-Past success the Pats have had with ST players.
-Would it really be a surprise if Byrd and Vitale Breakout?
-Times are changing just hopeful they have success with same type of players.
I guess that depends on what you define as breaking out. I can’t see Vitale having any more than 25 touches, and I think Damiere Byrd might have reached his ceiling last season with 32 catches for 359 yards.
If Vitale and Byrd break out, then ultimately that means that something went wrong. That means that the Patriots’ rookie tight ends and some of their wide receivers with higher upside didn’t perform as expected.
@WifiWolfpack
Was there ever a resolution to the video recording of the Bengals sideline? I thought it was supposed to have been ruled on before the draft, but I don’t remember hearing anything of it.
Nope. It’s a complete joke that the NFL still hasn’t resolved the case.
The NFL was digging as hard as they possibly could to find some wrongdoing by the Patriots’ team. They already know what New England’s TV crew did because the Patriots announced it themselves.
The fact that we still haven’t seen a conclusion means the NFL hasn’t found anything that we don’t already know.
@NathanK12321
What needs to happen for Will Hastings to make the roster?
He needs to prove that he can be the Patriots’ slot receiver of the future. It’s that simple.
The Patriots have been looking for that guy for years and years and years and haven’t found him yet.
Jeremy Ebert, T.J. Moe, Josh Boyce, Jeremy Gallon, Austin Carr, Riley McCarron and Braxton Berrios couldn’t be the next Troy Brown, Wes Welker, Julian Edelman or Danny Amendola. Maybe Hastings, Jeff Thomas, Sean Riley, Jakobi Meyers or Gunner Olszewski can. There are some intriguing candidates in there.
Hastings has the advantage of having worked with Stidham, and developing a strong relationship with the QB, at Auburn. That should help him as he tries to earn a roster spot. If the Patriots turn to a player like Meyers or Sanu in the slot, then that means they’ve changed their prototype for that role into a bigger body type.
The Patriots also could utilize more two-tight end sets with third-round picks Dalton Keene and Devin Asiasi now on the roster.
Hastings and Thomas are two really intriguing undrafted free agents, however, and the Patriots need to find that next guy who can get open and beat man coverage on third and 6.
@TheyCallMeIcon
Do you think N’keal Harry breakout this year ? Could he be that number one guy ?
I’m still penciling in Julian Edelman as the Patriots’ No. 1 guy, but Harry certainly has that potential.
Harry will be better this season than he was as a rookie, but that’s also a really, really low bar. I’d be slightly surprised if Harry cracked 1,000 receiving yards. I think something in the 600-to-800 range is more realistic.
Let’s go rapid fire.

Too early/late in the week for a #MailDoug, @DougKyed?
Danny Vitale had 7 catches and 1 rushing attempt in 15 games last year with the Packers. Assuming he makes the roster, where is the over/under for him this season in New England?
I’m setting the over/under at 18 total touches. That’s how many James Develin had in 2018.
@mojo1566
Biggest wild card for the season? #MailDoug
It has to be Stidham, right? If he’s good, the Patriots are good. If he’s bad, then the Patriots are probably bad.

The news on Julian Edelman got a little brighter Friday when coach Bill Belichick gave a positive prognosis for the Patriots most productive receiver.Past Slot Receivers For New England Patriots
“We’ll see how the return goes,” Belichick said. “I mean, I don’t think it is a season-ending situation. But we’ll see. I’m not a doctor. We’ll see how it goes here. Hopefully he’ll be back. I know he’s worked awfully hard and nobody is more competitive than Julian is. So, he’ll do everything he can to be back out there and we’ll just take it day by day in the process and see how it goes.”
Edelman, who had a knee procedure Thursday and will miss Sunday’s game, according to an NFL source, could land on injured reserve, which would allow him to return for the Nov. 22 game in Houston. Wide receiver N’Keal Harry also has been ruled out Sunday with a concussion.
So, who takes Edelman’s spot in the lineup?
The Patriots have slot options, with Gunner Olszewski and practice squaders Isaiah Zuber, Mason Kinsey, and Kristian Wilkerson.
Olszewski, who is the club’s top return man, has limited receiving experience — he was a college cornerback, remember — and has just one catch for 11 yards this season.
Zuber is another top candidate given his experience as a college receiver and in the Patriots’ system — he’s been with the club throughout camp. He’s already been elevated to the game day roster three times and it would be a surprise if he didn’t get the nod again this weekend.
The 6-foot, 190-pounder, who has one catch for 16 yards and a pair of jet-sweep rushes for 21 yards, beat out a pair of other undrafted slot campers — Will Hastings and Jeff Thomas — to win a practice squad spot.
Zuber quickly became a favorite of his teammates during the summer with loud chants of “Zoooobs” ringing out whenever he would make a play.Patriots Receivers 2011
“He’s been good. He’s bought in. He’s learning. He’s improving. You can see it week after week,” cornerback Jonathan Jones said Friday. “He’s in here working hard day after day. For young guys, that’s all you ask, for someone to come in and try to get better and not make the same mistakes and just continue to develop their game. I’d definitely say he’s on the right path.”
Zuber slipped the through the draft cracks after a nondescript season at Mississippi State, where he transferred for his final season and had just 14 catches for 211 yards.
During his three seasons at Kansas State, Zuber left impressions, catching 127 balls for 1,321 yards and 11 touchdowns. Zuber was a special teams demon for the Wildcats. He returned 10 punts for 178 yards and a score, and had 33 kickoff returns for 513 yards in his college career.
“Zuber’s got good skill, got good size, runs well, catches well,” said Belichick. “He’s made some plays with the ball in his hands.”
Kinsey played at Division 3 Berry College, where he put up video game numbers, catching 203 passes for 3,343 yards, and 50 TDs. He was the only Division 3 player invited to the East-West Shrine Game, where he had a pair of catches.
Without the benefit of seeing Kinsey in a full practice, it is hard to get a feel for his development, however watching him in limited individual drills, it’s clear he has the skills teams covet when looking for slot guys.
The 5-10, 198-pound Kinsey is quick and explosive in and out of his cuts. He impressed in his summer camp work with the Titans with his soft hands and competitiveness after the catch.
Wilkerson is another guy who turned some heads with the Titans this summer with his excellent hands and speed. Wilkerson, who appears bigger than his listed 6-1, 214 pounds, is a strong fighter when it comes to contested balls.
He piled up school records of 3,540 receiving yards and 33 TDs at Southeast Missouri State, where he ran a 4.46 at his Pro Day, which would have tied him for 13th among wide receivers at the Combine.
Belichick said Kinsey and Wilkerson are steadily improving, and Jones agreed.Slot Receivers For New England Patriots
“Kristian competes,” said Jones. “Every day, every week he’s out there he’s going to compete. He does a good job of going and getting balls. And Mason the same. He’s out there working hard and improving every day. Those guys are doing whatever coaches ask them to do and they go after it. They work hard. You definitely see improvement since they’ve been here, and they continue to get better.”
