The Patriots have selected Tennessee linebacker Jerod Mayo with the number 10 pick in the draft.
Mayo was a first-team All-SEC pick with the Volunteers last season; he is listed at 6-foot-1, 242 pounds. He becomes the first linebacker ever selected higher than the fifth round by the Bill Belichick-Scott Pioli regime.
The last linebacker New England selected in the first round was Ohio State's Andy Katzenmoyer. Let's hope Mayo works out better than Katzenmoyer, who injured his neck midway through his rookie season and never played again.
