3 things to know about Patriots third-round pick Yodny Cajuste

The Patriots drafted one offensive lineman in the 2019 NFL Draft: Yodny Cajuste, a 6-foot-5, 321-pound tackle out of West Virginia. The Super Bowl champions selected Cajuste in the third round with the 101st overall pick.

Cajuste arrived at West Virginia in 2014 as a redshirt freshman slated to play defensive line. By 2015, he had switched positions to offensive line and established himself as the Mountaineers’ starting left tackle. Cajuste was named one of the Big 12 conference’s offensive linemen of the year alongside Dalton Risner and Dru Samia in 2018.
