4. Vincent Valentine

The Patriots’ fourth round pick this spring scores points for the alliteration of the letter “V”, something you certainly don’t see everyday. Hopefully, that last name of “Valentine” is a foreshadowing of the Patriots’ fan base falling in love with the Nebraska product.

Forecasting Vincent Valentine in 2016

Valentine possesses insane playing strength and size at 6-foot-3, 329 pounds, although he carries his weight well, as evidenced by a 5.19-second time in the 40-yard dash. The knock on Valentine is his work ethic and lack of production as a senior, but you can bet that the rookie is tired of hearing about that and will look to prove the doubters wrong in 2016.
