Michigan's NFL Draft History

 

Cesar Ruiz

Probably like many of you, I occasionally have a hankering for some Michigan NFL Draft history. Below you will find (as far as I'm aware) every pro draft pick in the history of Michigan's football program going all the way back to 1937.

A few little factoids:

  • Michigan's only two #1 overall NFL Draft picks are Jake Long in 2008 and Tom Harmon in 1941.
  • Michigan set a record in 2024 with 13 total draft picks, topping the 11 from 2017.
  • Michigan's record number of 1st round NFL draft picks is a tie with 3 each in 1995 (Tyrone Wheatley, Ty Law, Trezelle Jenkins), 2001 (David Terrell, Steve Hutchinson, Jeff Backus), and 2025 (Mason Graham, Colston Loveland, Kenneth Grant)

Okay, so it's been a long time since I've done regular posting, and that includes missing a bunch of commitment posts. Life gets very hectic sometimes, and I'm in one of those stretches. But I happen to have some rare free time today and the spring game is closer in the rearview mirror, so I'm reviewing Tommy Carr today.

Saline (MI) Saline quarterback Tommy Carr committed to Michigan on November 16, 2025. He was previously committed to Miami-OH and also had offers from Eastern Michigan, Iowa State, Rutgers, Wake Forest, and a few others.

The 6'4", 185 lb. pound Carr completed 176/254 passes (69.4%) for 2,734 yards, 37 touchdowns, and 6 interceptions as a senior in 2025. He also ran for 276 yards and 8 touchdowns.
