De La Salle grad Devin Asiasi drafted by New England Patriots
Two-time De La Salle High School state champion Devin Asiasi (86) was selected in the 3rd round of the NFL draft by New England after the Patriots traded up with the Las Vegas Raiders to grab the UCLA tight end with the 91st overall pick. Asiasi began his college career at Michigan but transferred to UCLA after his freshman season joining his Spartan teammate Boss Tagaloa on the Bruins. At both Michigan and UCLA his first pass reception went for a touchdown. The 6-3, 257-pounder will be one of three rookie tight ends trying to replace former Patriots star Rob Gronkowski.
