He’s undersized for the position (6-foot-4, 240 pounds), giving the Patriots an AJ Derby/Clay Harbor-type “move” option in the competition for the No. 3 spot alongside players with a significantly different physical makeup in Matt Lengel (6-7, 267), Michael Williams (6-6, 280) and Rob Housler (6-5, 250). Caserio said Saturday night the club had done a lot of work on O’Shaughnessy coming out of the draft, and that provided a foundation for the Patriots to want to make the trade.
