Patriots draft profile: Olu Fashanu could be top trade-down target at left tackle

The New England Patriots hunt to upgrade their offensive tackle position continues as the top of the left tackle depth chart currently consists of Chukwuma Okorafor, Calvin Anderson and Conor McDermott.

New England investing in the position during this year’s draft therefore makes plenty of sense and Penn State’s Olu Fashanu could provide a talented long-term solution. With his projected draft range, however, a scenario with the Patriots selecting Fashanu likely begins with the team trading down from No. 3 overall.

If that’s the path they go down, let’s take a closer look at Fashanu to see what he would bring to the table.
