The 2025 NFL Draft has officially wrapped up, and the New England Patriots made a splash with their final selection—defensive back Kobee Minor at No. 257!

Hailing from Memphis after a whirlwind college career that took him from Texas Tech to Indiana, Minor has shown he's a player to watch. Over his last collegiate season, he notched impressive stats, including six passes defended and two sacks, showcasing his defensive prowess.

But that's not all for the Patriots! Earlier in the seventh round, they also made headlines by choosing long snapper Julian Ashby from Vanderbilt at No. 251, marking the first long snapper selected in the draft since 2021. This bold move highlights New England's commitment to special teams excellence.

As the dust settles on the 2025 Draft, fans are buzzing about the potential impact of these new additions as the Patriots gear up for the season ahead!
