The New England Patriots’ scouting department has had its misses over the years, but there is no denying the team is as good as any in football at identifying and acquiring talent on the undrafted rookie market. That is especially true at the cornerback position.
While Super Bowl hero Malcolm Butler stands out, he is just one of the free agent cornerbacks the Patriots have added to their team through the years. Randall Gay helped New England win a championship, as did Jonathan Jones. Justin Coleman and Kenny Moore also entered the league via New England before having solid careers elsewhere.
