Harbaugh opinion ‘huge’ for Michigan draft prospects

Former Michigan center Graham Glasgow and defensive lineman Willie Henry continue to receive mounting praise as they head into this week’s NFL combine, and it doesn’t hurt that Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh is in their camps.

Harbaugh, an NFL veteran as a player and coach, carries a lot of weight when offering his opinion of players heading to the next level. Last year at this time, for example, former Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston and former Baylor quarterback Bryce Petty worked out in Ann Arbor with Harbaugh.

So it certainly has helped players such as Henry, Glasgow and quarterback Jake Rudock, who was not invited to the combine, to have Harbaugh’s support as they continue preparations for potential NFL careers.
