Michigan NFL Draft Streak in Jeopardy?
Last year, Michigan football players were chosen in the NFL Draft for the 77th straight time. Only the USC Trojans can match that streak. Here's an article on it.
This year, none of our boys are expected to be drafted.
Is this something to be sad about? Or just an interesting factoid? I can't decide. But just thought I'd share.

what about 2008 Wisconsin, they were ranked #9

Of course they then ended the year 7-6 and #56 (Massey). They didn't have a win over anybody that was even decent all year, unless you count the overtime game against Cal Poly who did pretty well in FCS.
They might have been 3-0 when we beat them but they were not a good team.

I know you're on a nice little run right now, but I don't know if you should go getting too big a head yet, you guys were bad for nearly 40 years.

You sound like a Spartan fan disguised as a Michigan fan in an attempt to troll the faithful. Maybe your screen name should be SammyGreen.

You wouldn't be the one to know about anyone's refreshing sisters.

I'm just messin with you. Some people do like to go overboard on that a bit on here, though.
But glad to hear you're getting some poon. Lol

You have been going out with all the mgowomen on this site?

He said nothing about women! Are you suggesting he has to like women only?? Wooo Wooo Wooo! That's 2015 pulling you over dude!
Sorry, couldn't resist. ;)

Not really surprised... As drjaws stated, many of the eligible players are staying, and this is also a consequence of the unlucky 2011 recruiting class. How many dudes are even left from that year?

I think so too, I don't know how you could watch his tape from this year year and not think he's worth a flyer in the late rounds. I think he would be a good special teams player at worst.

Would M get any credit for Blake Countess?
December 28th, 2015 at 6:33 PM ^
This is a good question. I'm gonna guess not, he's listed as an Auburn CB. Strong chance he doesn't get drafted at all, so it might be a moot point in his case. But like does NC State claim Russell Wilson?
December 28th, 2015 at 6:37 PM ^
Then Iowa would get credit for Rudock.
December 29th, 2015 at 12:34 PM ^
If he doesn't come to Michigan and get coached up, he's not even remotely considered for the draft. The sole reason he's going to have a chance at the draft is Harbaugh.

The ACC takes credit for Wilson.
He's in their NFL stars TV ad

I thought his draft stock rose this year. Where does Kuyper have him? Because as you know, it's all about what Kuyper says. . ./s

Small senior class. If this bothers anyone wait until next year when they will have serveral players drafted.

Would you rather have guys like Butt and Lewis leave to make sure that is kept 100% intact.
With Harbaugh's contacts, I wouldn't doubt that Glasgow gets drafted in the later rounds.
December 28th, 2015 at 6:32 PM ^
Part of it is timing, too, though, as we have a few juniors who chose not to go pro and Funchess went pro early when he would otherwise have been with this group.
We'll have a lot more guys getting drafted going forward, starting with a pretty strong group next year.

I guess I just don't see why this matters. It's not like Michigan is no longer attracting or developing top talent. This is just a fluke year.
Side note: Does anyone think O'Neill has a shot to get drafted? I think he does (assuming that ACL rumor is false).

Do any teams in the NFL use the rugby style punting?

You're not wrong, but if RR had finished his class then the streak would easily continue... so I think your point is weak.
