Patriots select defensive tackle Dominique Easley in first round


The Patriots have actually made their pick at 29. They have selected Florida's Dominique Easley.

Easley tore his ACL in September of last year. It was the second time he tore that same ACL. This makes him the classic type of "value" pick the Patriots love.

It obviously fits a huge need for the Pats, who have been in need of some depth on the defensive line. They got more than depth with the extremely talented Easley, a move that is sure to make Patriots fans happy. More info coming.
