After trading down three times in the first round, the New England Patriots finally made their pick at No. 27.
The Patriots selected cornerback Devin McCourty out of Rutgers.
Listed at 5-foot-10 and 197 pounds, he blew the scouts away with his speed in the 40-yard-dash at the Scouting Combine.
He is perhaps best known for his special teams prowess. McCourty averaged 27.9 yards per kick return in 2009 for the Scarlet Knights.
He added 50 tackles on special teams as well.
