Are the Patriots going to add any more Rutgers defenders on day three of the 2013 NFL Draft?

The Patriots did a fantastic job of adding talented players to their roster on day two of the 2013 NFL Draft, hitting on my first three priorities for them: add talent at receiver, improve the pass rush and shore up coverage.

Only 32 prospects will hear NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell announce their name in Round 1 of April’s draft. Some will even be on hand at Radio City Music Hall to hoist their team’s jersey and smile for the cameras. That’s not the case for the 48 prospects that will be picked in Round 7.
Instead, the ESPN draft ticker does all the heavy lifting as NFL hopefuls sit on their couch just hoping to get a call. There’s no elaborate podium announcement to be made, and no team hats to be handed out, either.
Seventh-round picks don’t get the glory, but they can still make an impact.
