After selecting three players in the 2015 NFL draft’s opening three rounds, the Patriots were back on the clock for the 101st pick. They selected Arkansas DE Trey Flowers.
Flowers is a 6’2″, 265-pound defensive end that features 34-plus inch arms and phenomenal lower-body explosiveness. Flowers was a top performer in the vertical leap and broad jump at the 2015 NFL Combine.
#Patriots pick Trey Flowers was one of Gruden's favorite players in draft. Reminded him of LaMarr Woodley.
On the field, however, Flowers doesn’t always display a big pop off the snap of the ball.
