Michigan to lose top TE Luke Schoonmaker to 2023 NFL draft

Michigan's Luke Schoonmaker, one of the top tight ends in college football, told ESPN that he's leaving school to declare for the 2023 NFL draft.

Schoonmaker is a fifth-year senior with one year of eligibility remaining. Multiple NFL scouts told ESPN that he projects as a second-round pick, as his ability to have a strong impact on both the run game and pose as a pass-catching threat make him attractive to NFL teams.

"Coach (Jim) Harbaugh and a lot of the offensive coaches have given me the confidence that I'm ready for the next level, and I've developed into a complete tight end," Schoonmaker told ESPN.
