Mr. Irrelevant Kobee Minor: Memphis DB with Pro Potential as Patriots Rookie
Kobee Minor, the 2025 NFL Draft's 'Mr. Irrelevant' (7th round, 257th pick by New England), flashes explosive athleticism and ball skills from his Memphis Tigers days, earning high school all-district honors as a safety and turning heads in college highlights for his physicality and return ability. As a rookie cornerback (5'11", 182 lbs), he's logged 1 tackle with zero INTs so far amid the Pats' 4-13 struggles, but film analysis from NBC Sports and YouTube breakdowns praise his 'real potential' for special teams and depth—ideal for teams needing versatile, high-motor DBs ready to grind.
