Well, looks like that does it for today’s workout. The players will be speaking in a minute, so look for some of that material later today on Patriots.com.

The O’Connell-to-Stupar connection made another great play, almost the exact same throw, only this time in 7-on-7. Stupar, by the way, is the nephew of former NFL QB Jeff Hostetler.

On a side note, the QB does seem to have a little trouble making the short throws, not unlike former Pats QB Drew Bledsoe (I can hear Perillo whining all the way from Peabody).

O’Connell’s zipping his passes in there. Looks much sharper than a day ago. Many of his receivers, however, are having trouble holding on to the ball, for some reason.

LB Jerod Mayo got beat in a matchup with a running back and was made to do it over again.

RB 32, who showed nice hands in earlier drills, isn’t doing so well in the one-on-one work. 

O’Connell just launched a perfect strike to TE Jonathan Stupar down the middle of the field, over the head of a trailing defender. Great throw and a great catch.

Wow, Wheatley’s fast! We noted this yesterday, but it’s worth revisiting. He showed off that speed running a kickoff back just now. Slater got a rep in, too, as did CB Jonathan Wilhite.

O’Connell’s throwing to receivers who are one-on-one with DBs now….

After a good showing on Friday, the tryout WR wearing # 11 has dropped a few catchable passes today. QB Kevin O’Connell, conversely, is looking more relaxed today, and his throws so far reflect that. He’s more on target today than yesterday.

Kickoff return team is coming up, and Slater is in the rotation again, with CB Terrence Wheatley in there as well.

Well, we still don’t know his name, but the RB wearing jersey 32 is standing out among the other three backs in camp. Good speed, good hands, good technique in drills.

Fifth-round draft pick Matthew Slater, the man without a position at this point, is wearing a blue pinney over his white jersey and is running through drills with the defense right now. He started off Friday’s practice with the offense. He was one of several players to take part in kickoff return drills Friday.

Looks like all 27 players who took part in Friday’s double session are back again this morning.

Can’t say the same for the overwhelming majority of slacker media types who were in attendance yesterday. Fewer than 10 of us are here today, including Patriots Today’s Brian Lowe and Kristina Akra, and reporters from the Globe, Herald, and ProJo.

No, I’m not bitter… 

Andy and I are here for the final day of media access at rookie mini camp. Practice gets started in about 5 minutes (10:15 Eastern). We’ll be blogging the action momentarily…

He just broke up a deep pass by O’Connell, as the intended receiver unintentionally knocked him down, and he nearly came up with an INT in the process.

O’Connell’s been hot and cold today. He has great zip on his passes, though a number of them have been a bit off target. Chalk it up to first-day jitters. I’m sure he’ll be fine, despite the negative-nancy pessimism of Andy Hart.
