Gronk looked completely healthy, which is good.

Yep, totally.

I'm really pulling for Dennard to get a spot.

BB likes hightower a lot. when you get him to praise you in public, it's usually a very good sign. Did it for Gronk and Mayo.

So what's our RB depth chart looking like?

Also any word on how Ridley is doing?

This is my take on it:

Tailbacks:
Ridley
Woodhead (3rd down back)
Hernandez
Vereen
Bolden

Fullbacks:
Larsen
Hernandez
Kettani
Fiametta

From everything I have read so far, Ridley is doing well and is the guy expected to pick up the most snaps from the law firm's departure. Still early in camp however, so we'll see what happens when the games begin.

I love the addition of Chandler Jones, it just feels like somethings missing on that D-line. I really want Andre Carter back. That would please me going forward.

Yeah I was reading some training camp reports last night and from what I read, Ridley has looked really good and he's the leading candidate to be starting RB.

Spikes and Solder got into a fight last night. Leading to a big scrum.

Not really fazed by it, I actually enjoyed it. This happens a lot in training camps, but I've yet to see it happen in Foxboro, or haven't in a while. From my gatherings, I hear Solder took a cheap shot after being frustrated by Spikes, while spikes was on the ground. Video has brady holding Mayo back. I love that about mayo. Shows how tight the linebacker crew is.

Also shows how strong Brady is :wink:

Vereen saw the first team reps yesterday with Ridley going third. I guess Ridley had a fumble a few days ago and it would not shock me if Vereen never looks back.

Reports that Lloyd is just catching everything. This could really be a huge year for the Pats offense....if the line holds up of course.

Ridley got hurt, injured his hamstring.

Post #13 » by **Geoffrey P** » Fri Aug 17, 2012 5:27 am

Edelman and Koutouvides got kicked out of practice for fighting.
Gaffney DTD with a right leg injury
Carter still not signed

Vereen took the snaps when Ridley was healthy. Then Ridley hurt his hamstring/knee.

I hope Carter gets signed. Also what's the deal with Brian Waters?

As for Ridley & Vereen, looks like they'll be competing for the starting spot.

Pats will sign Jeff Demps.. World class speed right there!

Awesome. I'll take that for a returner.

Pats have looked awful this pre-season. Ugh.

That offensive line looks pretty bad, if they play this way in the regular season, there gonna be some long nights for Brady.

The positive I got out of this game was Mallett- he did well..

edit: Ebert again with the touchdown, he has a shot at making the squad, I guess.
