Michigan kicker Jake Moody and punter Brad Robbins often joked about wanting to get drafted by an NFL team as a package deal.
That didn’t happen, but both players were drafted during the three-day NFL Draft. Moody went to San Francisco in the third round and Robbins heard his name called Saturday as the last pick of the sixth round, No. 217 overall, to the Cincinnati Bengals. He's the first punter since 2009 the Bengals have drafted, and Robbins grew up about 100 miles from Cincinnati in Westerville, just outside Columbus.
“He’s got a chance to make it in the NFL,” ESPN NFL Draft analyst Mel Kiper said of Robbins after his selection.
