Plain and simple. Here is my scouting report on J.J McCarthy. J.J McCarthy, QB, 6-2 219, Michigan Arm Strength: Strong arm. McCarthy can put some zip on the ball. Has good velocity and zip on his ball….
Polk was a favorite among coaches and his teammates. A hard worker who excels to making plays at all three levels of the field. Burst onto the scene the last two years catching 110 passes for 1,853 yards and 15 touchdowns. Polk is not an elite level athlete by any means but he has good hands, runs great routes and knows how to get on the same page with his…
Image courtesy of New England Patriots Ok. Let’s get away from the current draft for a minute or two. It’s all been talked to death and we’ll finally know the future of the franchise in just over 24 hours. In the mean time, it is pretty crazy to sit back and think about how long this fan base got to go without having to worry about screwing up a Top…
Baker transferred to UCF from Alabama after the 2021 season. One of the most productive receivers in the country the past two years. Baker caught 108 passes for 1,935 yards and 12 touchdowns. Baker finished first team All Big-12 for his efforts. Here is my scouting report on Javon Baker. Javon Baker, WR, 6-1 202, UCF Hands: Baker has strong hands. Does a good job of catching the ball away…
Note: We wanted to create a new feature that honored the history of the high school game a little. This is a snapshot of MIAA play in 2000, and while a lot of that info is hard to access, we still remember a good amount of it. So here’s an attempt to capture those old glories. If you have any additional information from other years, it is welcome. Here is…
It’s finally here. The NFL Draft is upon us, and the Patriots are facing their most consequential draft in the past 30-years. Bill Belichick is gone, there is a hole at quarterback and the future of the entire offense is uncertain. With those things in mind, I took a quarterback of the future, several offensive pieces and injected additional youth into an already good defense. Round 1, Pick 3: Drake…
The 2024 quarterback is one of the most highly scrutinized classes in years. After a recent string of classes that have either underachieved or flopped, hopes are high for this group. Now I’m not one for comps but I do think this class reminds me a lot of the 2004 class which featured Ben Roethlisberger, Eli Manning, Philip Rivers and J.P Losman. Three of the four quarterbacks in that draft…
As we are deep in the spring, we never stop looking forward to the fall. We wanted to peek ahead to the MIAA season, but with a bit of a different twist. These are teams that we feel are a little bit under the radar at this point. Maybe we did not go for them this past season, but we feel can make an impact this year. If you were…
Image courtesy of Sports Business Journal The draft week rumor mill is pumping out some good stuff already. On Monday afternoon just before 2:00, Dianna Russini reported that the Patriots were taking calls on the No. 3 pick and while Eliot Wolf was ‘running point,’ Jonathan Kraft is ‘heavily involved’ in deciding the future of New England’s highest draft choice since 1993. Should he be? Of course, to a certain…
Image courtesy of Matt Slocum/Associated Press That didn’t take long. What, like, two months? Matt Slater is still a football guy at heart and a lifetime Patriot. So, it’s only fitting that the guy who was instrumental in maintaining culture in Foxborough for years is going to have the chance to help implement a fresher one in the Jerod Mayo era. ESPN’s Mike Weiss reported over the weekend that Slater…
