The 2013 FBS Independent Defensive Player of the Year, Van Noy racked up 62 tackles for loss and 26 sacks in his BYU career. Considering his latent pass-rushing skills in addition to the ability to hang with tight ends in coverage and set the edge in the run game, the Patriots might have visions of Mike Vrabel-like potential if Van Noy reaches his ceiling.

The Patriots only gave up a draft pick for the former second rounder. This is a typical Belichick move. Lions sending LB Kyle Van Noy & 7th-rd pick to Patriots for 6th-rd pick
