UM prospects in '19 NFL Draft (ESPN+/$)
Mel Kiper updated his Big Board and positional rankings in advance of the 2019 NFL Draft. Michigan is prominently represented with two defenders in his top ten overall and five other players garnering mention for their position. Wolverines included:
Devin Bush: #6(!) overall, #2 ILB
Rashan Gary: #8 overall, #2 DE
Ben Bredeson: #3 G(!)
Karan Higdon: #5 RB
Chase Winovich: #5 OLB
David Long: #7 CB
Lavert Hill: #8 CB
Haven't seen Bredeson getting huge grades from PFF or even UFR, so that seems to be by far the biggest surprise. Tough decisions appear on the horizon for Long and Hill who have what looks like 2nd round grades at this stage in their evaluation. Michigan's CBs have been PFF fave raves for the past two years, but they'll have an opportunity to rise (or fall) with how they fare against Ohio State and (potentially) in playoff games against NFL quality WR at Bama or Clemson.
