Patriots sign three draftees
New England has announced the signing of three of its late-round draft picks: sixth-rounders Mike Richardson and Corey Hilliard as well as seventh-rounder Oscar Lua.
Richardson is a 5-foot-11, 188 pound defensive back from Notre Dame selected 202nd overall who played his last two seasons under former Pats offensive coordinator Charlie Weis.
Hilliard, the 209th pick, is a 6-foot-6, 305 pound offensive lineman from Oklahoma State who caught everyone's attention for all the wrong reasons during rookie mini-camp when he got sick and removed himself from the drills.
Lua is a linebacker out of Southern California who grew up idolizing his new teammate, Junior Seau. He is a 6-foot-1, 240 pound California native selected 211th overall.
Training camp begins in 13 days...
