Jalen Mayfield is going to Atlanta.
The former Michigan offensive lineman was selected by the Falcons in the third round (No. 68 overall) of the NFL draft on Friday , becoming the second Wolverine taken.
Thus completes a meteoric rise for the former Grand Rapids Catholic Central star, who played in just 18 games across three seasons at Michigan before entering the draft.
Despite the relative lack of experience (at least compared to most players drafted from his position group), Mayfield was the 11th offensive tackle selected this year.
The 6 feet 5, 326-pound lineman started 15 games for the Wolverines between 2019-20 at right tackle.
