Why do I have a picture of Joe Cocozzo? |
2ND ROUND
#61. Michigan linebacker Jonas Mouton was drafted by the San Diego Chargers. Mouton was the first Michigan player chosen by the Chargers since offensive guard Joe Cocozzo in 1993, who was selected in the third round (#63 overall).
3RD ROUND
#74. Arkansas quarterback (and former Wolverine) Ryan Mallett was drafted by the New England Patriots. He has first round talent but an undrafted free agent level of maturity, so he probably couldn't have asked for a better situation. Sure, I bet he would have loved first round money, but now he gets to sit behind and learn from Tom Brady for a few years. If he learns well, he could become a franchise quarterback when Brady moves on or retires.
6TH ROUND
#201. Michigan offensive lineman Steve Schilling was drafted by the San Diego Chargers. This is the first time multiple Michigan players have been chosen by one team since . . . 2008, when the Miami Dolphins picked offensive tackle Jake Long in the first round and quarterback Chad Henne in the second.
UNDRAFTED
DT Greg Banks, OG Justin Boren (Ohio State), OT Perry Dorrestein, LB Obi Ezeh, OG John Ferrara, DE Eugene Germany (Central Washington), LB Kevin Leach, LB Cobrani Mixon (Kent State), FB/LB Mark Moundros, DE Adam Patterson, CB James Rogers, DT Renaldo Sagesse, TE Martell Webb
What sucks for the undrafted guys is teams can't sign undrafted free agents right now, so they're kind of in limbo at this point.
