The Michigan Wolverines have been on a tear lately with outstanding defensive tackles. Prior to the “gifts from the football gods,” Jim Harbaugh and staff developed guys like Maurice Hurst, Chris Hinton, Mazi Smith and Kris Jenkins, among others, into NFL draft picks. Mason Graham and Kenneth Grant will only add to that list in two months.
Assuming both are first-round picks in the 2025 NFL Draft, it’s now time to turn our attention to who’s returning to Michigan. It will be impossible to replace Graham and Grant one-for-one. However, the cupboard is far from bare as the interior appears to be a position of strength yet again.
