The New England Patriots pick center Ted Larsen in the 6th round

The Patriots have selected center Ted Larsen out of North Carolina State with the 205th pick (6th round) of the NFL Draft.  Larsen is 6′2″, 302 pounds but he has only been playing center for two years.  He played defensive tackle his first two years at N.C. State in which he had 5.5 sacks in 23 games (5 starts).  He has started all 25 games the last two years for the Wolfpack at center.  He is still a little raw due to his lack of experience.  But, he is a good pass protector which is a good thing for the Patriots.  He will likely need to be coached up some on his run blocking however.  Still, this was a solid pick for the Patriots as he was projected to be picked in the 4th or 5th round.
