[0:00]" Yielded 200 just won the 2008 motor trend -- the year and that's pretty cool. It's changing you know."

[0:11]" Coming up like Toyota's Patriots today. It's that time of the year all of the wading -- Major dirt kicking off training camp we got everything you need to -- for the start of the 2000 me yeah. Plus -- got some tips to help you paint me if you're heading -- at Gillette Stadium. And when it comes -- the Patriots game playing there are -- to be filled and players vying for the team. Welcome to Toyota's Patriots today. -- side that Toyota Tundra."

[0:48]" Hello everyone and welcome to Toyota's Patriots today I'm Christina -- back -- it's about that time -- your training camp is less than a week away we got everything you need to know you're planning on heading up to Gillette Stadium to watch the Patriots prepare for the 2008 season. Prime I was getting a start with a closer look. At what to expect from the players on the field."

[1:15]" Last year at this time talked briefly with incorporated all -- of view high profile skill position players into the next. Petri dish to say -- they would cost more which. Imagine how to repeat this time around. The adjustment period is over for guys like Randy Moss and Wes Welker. -- on Brady and offensive coordinator Josh mcdaniels to guide to new players through the playbook. This -- out fine tuning with already a record setting offense. I -- that Angel is an eagle Ellis -- could be hobbling. Five players kept adding to what the state of the -- cornerback position. Strictly a lot rides and help the -- the incumbent. Yards and the key figures to keep an eye on our newcomers Fernando Bryant Jason Webster was rookie parent weekly Jonathan Wilhite the best case scenario guarantee -- that at least one player from that group clearly emerges as a starter. What are the most closely watched players that -- will no doubt be first round draft pick to rot in -- After being selected tenth overall yet but -- hate that Mayo can jump like the -- Hate even as an opening day starter on the inside of the -- forming -- it's rare for a rookie linebacker to crack the rotation in this. You can. The spotlight will be on -- to keep he's not just any rookie linebacker. -- fifteen for what Harrison in his thirteenth pretend repeat. Costs and Mike Vrabel entering your twelfth had you got a trio of -- defensive players with played. -- but also when you really care Harrison whose teams were able to play. We did last year aside from Harrison fourteen suspension to speak frankly no way. Perhaps go to area lighter workload build it right to -- As of now this will be the first time the Patriots -- game without for a while. Dick McPherson was the head coach he hasn't tired. He hasn't signed elsewhere but their condolences signs that the 37 year old wrapped will be returning to only teams never know. And then if you take out a workhorse last season his second is -- wouldn't if you want to play ball for nineteenth. What did you watch began on the -- if you say how important."

[3:38]" Right joining me now on an empty practice field -- soon thousands of fans will be out here's -- in the Patriots we think the motivation levels going to be like on the field for the fans the motivation is going to be huge particularly for a through ball and -- talk about the team. You know I think that is going to be business as usual I like to refer back to last year when they're coming off a really devastating playoff loss to Indianapolis and they came back and training camp that year last year to a lot of new faces. But their mission was to win the Super Bowl and that's what their motto was from day one forget about last year. I really think it's going to be similar I don't know it's going to be -- more than last year was but I think they're going to race last year and be motivated to win this. And as far as the draft picks that have not -- and -- and several others what does -- mean -- what can you take out of that you know I think long term even if a guy like drug Mayo -- few days and is holding out because of his contract I think long term not much of an issue short term it'll be a big story you know first round -- here this high expectations. For him. And it might be a bumpy road for him early on as he tries to justice system. Unless it's a really lengthy holdout which I don't foresee. I don't think it's any that we have to worry about as they going to -- Brooklyn you mentioned Troy Brown and junior say -- going to see nightmare this here. I say no on Troy Brown I say yes on Junior -- I think we're going to see -- entering."

[5:38]" Plus you all know by now teachers training camp is just days away whether or not even experienced it before this year may be a whole new ballgame is that from the new players on the field. There's a lot of new development around Gillette Stadium."

[5:53]" Start with versus. -- the construction of Patriot place this year he'll make waves at six and Trent you're coming from the north and the entrance if you're coming from out. Oh yeah they had to hit an approach shot but fortunately came but he won entrants but -- training camp is laugh and and the coach shopping. Your training camp first up we'll be okay Scott pavlik heat here. Yeah watch practice hours from -- at 6 PM. Ten days to practice this will be about 8 -- nine."

[6:32]" One of the highlights of these practices as the fact that everyone will feel like they have a front row seat just because how close the bleachers are to the practice field he will be held here I Gillette stadium's practice field -- fans will be within feet of the players they work hard during training camp."

[9:47]" Welcome back to Toyota's Patriots today another aspect of training camp to focus on as the battling going on out there on the football field. And by that I mean key roles whether is head to head competition."

[10:09]" Big catcher would seem to have the edge at right tackle haven't started. -- of nineteen games there last year collector camp however following troubled offseason and Ryan Callahan has -- backup. Callahan even started six games as a rookie in 6. Still expected -- biggest offensive linemen to push after. The Tom Brady even need -- back up to outsmart to have won it the next couple the last three seasons and he refused limited wrapped. -- like that you could develop as an undrafted rookie to keep -- active roster and didn't. Get drafted capital Kabul in round leads this year. If he didn't have high hopes for him about the -- QBs this one could get interest. Competition for the quarterback spot opposite Ellis Hobbs should be big risk because his experience and a solid season in Detroit last year Fernando Bryant should have the edge. But Jason Webster could stay in the mix. And Karen weekly have a strong -- can't see him. In the working bigotry against beat that. And we are starting job."
