Devin McCourty

As per profootballreference.com:

College: Rutgers (school history)/(McCourty college stats)
Drafted by the New England Patriots in the 1st round (27th overall) of the 2010 NFL Draft.

McCourty has been a solid defensive contributor for the New England Patriots, missing only five games over those six seasons. In all, he has had 18 interceptions, but no pick-sixes. He has had 352 tackles and 109 assists during his time in New England. He has also had seven forced fumbles and one fumble recovery.

In all, he was a solid selection by the Patriots at the #27 slot.

For the Packers that offseason, they selected Bryan Bulaga at number 23. Bulaga, who started out as a left tackle, moved to right tackle in his rookie season, helped the Packers to a Super Bowl title, and has remained as the team’s RT since then. He was just re-signed to a long-term contract after last season. His value has been well documented.
