16 (48) New England Patriots (from Oakland): FS Tavon Wilson, Illinois A surprise second-round selection after the safety board was wiped clean, Wilson has corner-safety versatility and the type of intangibles to lead in the secondary. He has overcome a lot of adversity in his life and has the mental and physical toughness desired on the back end. He has outstanding size for the cornerback position, plays the ball well in front of him and could prove to be best as a press cornerback in the Patriots defense.

21 New England Patriots (from Cincinnati): DE Chandler Jones, Syracuse The Patriots sorely needed to add some pressure players, and Bill Belichick shrewdly dealt up to land a raw condor with rare length and explosive body power. Jones is very tough, humble and hardworking and once he develops his core strength and learns how to harness his raw power, he could emerge as a special talent at any position along the defensive line.

25 (25)  New England Patriots (from Denver): LB Dont’a Hightower, Alabama
After aggressively dealing up to land Chandler Jones, Belichick jumped up two spots again to leapfrog the Texans and find another versatile, mismatch piece with wrecking-ball power. The two-time team captain can pair with Jerod Mayo to fortify the inside of the Patriots’ defense. Having proven capable of rushing off the edge, Hightower can give the Patriots the ability to disguise their front and catch offenses off guard.

Bequette said that he is ready to play whatever position he is asked. “I feel very comfortable at both [end and linebacker],’’ he said. “I guess that’s the stock answer, but it’s true. I played the 4-3 end mostly in college, but I also stood up a little at outside linebacker at the Senior Bowl and the Combine. The more I did it, the more it grew on me. I can’t wait to see what the coaches have in store for me.’’
