It's a shade early, (the value is at positions the Patriots have already drafted) but the Patriots believe there is quite a drop-off in talent on the OL after this pick.
Projects to be a guard, but is versatile enough to play RT, and could knock Nick Kaczur out of a starting role, or at worst-case scenario, be the starting RG in 2010 when 900 year old Stephen Neal is cut/retires/etc.
The Patriots select:
Kraig Urbik, OG, Wisconsin
