From NFL.com:
27 seems unrealistic because I doubt Brockers falls that fall, while 31 seems unrealistic because I can't see BB taking a DE/OLB conversion from USC that high.
27. MICHAEL BROCKERS DT LSU
The Patriots are another team regularly changing fronts, and this 6-foot-6, 306-pound redshirt sophomore will look to show everyone at the combine that he has the athleticism to play both the 3-4 five-technique spot and an interior role in the 4-3.
28. COBY FLEENER TE STANFORD
29. KELECHI OSEMELE T IOWA STATE
30. ALSHON JEFFERY WR SOUTH CAROLINA
31. NICK PERRY DE USC
The odds of the Patriots keeping this pick are very low; some team will once again take out a second mortgage on their future with Bank Belichick to pick someone who seems like a great value. But the Pats could be tempted by the potential conversion of Perry from 4-3 defensive end to 3-4 rush linebacker, seeing him as an instant upgrade to their lackluster pass rush.
