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.
