Signing the final pick of the 2025 NFL Draft is a low-stakes roster-filler move. Five headlines covered the move, framing it as a procedural roster completion rather than meaningful upgrade. Being the last pick selected signals minimal draft capital investment and modest expectations league-wide. Fans see this as a camp body addition, with little buzz beyond draft trivia curiosity. Minor faces a steep battle just to survive cuts and stick on the practice squad long-term.

This signing grades out as a significant overpay for the New England Patriots — the team is paying more than the on-field production currently warrants. Kobee's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL DBs, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $923K average annual value ranks as bargain money for the DB market. The concern here is the gap between production and cost — unproven output at bargain money means the team is paying a premium above the player's on-field value. Kobee is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.
