Michigan produces its largest draft class of modern era
Ed Mulholland / USA TODAY Sports
Michigan's relative mediocrity in the NFL draft over the past decade has been well documented, but the Wolverines broke out in 2017 with their largest class of the modern era.
The Wolverines got on the board early with a pair of picks, Jabrill Peppers and Taco Charlton, in Round 1, and eventual sixth-rounder Jeremy Clark became the program's 11th selection two days later to break the program's single-draft record.
Player | Position | Round |
---|---|---|
Jabrill Peppers | S | 1 |
Taco Charlton | DE | 1 |
Chris Wormley | DE | 3 |
Jourdan Lewis | CB | 3 |
Delano Hill | S | 3 |
Amara Darboh | WR | 3 |
Ben Gedeon | LB | 4 |
Ryan Glasgow | DT | 4 |
Jehu Chesson | WR | 4 |
Jake Butt | TE | 5 |
Jeremy Clark | CB | 6 |
Michigan had three players selected last year, while another three went undrafted.
