My Take
What grabs me about Onwenu is the sixth-round story. Getting picked that late in the 2020 draft usually means a fight just to make the roster, yet the Detroit kid out of Michigan turned himself into a genuine fixture on the Patriots' offensive line. Guards do the thankless work: no stats, no glory, just protecting the quarterback and opening lanes with their bodies. I have a soft spot for late-round players who refuse to accept the label assigned to them, and Onwenu silenced the doubt the only way that counts, with sustained play. That blend of size, toughness, and proving-people-wrong grit earns my respect every time.
