With the 27th pick, the New England Patriots select…
Devin McCourty CB Rutgers 5-11, 193
McCourty has been one of the real risers over the past couple weeks and is a good fit in New England. He's a technically sound corner who can play both off and press coverage and knows how to find the football. Plus, he will tackle in the run game and looks like a very solid starter at the next level.
