Breaking down the NFL Draft potential of one of the best cornerbacks the Gophers have had in years.
As a three-year starter for the Golden Gophers and an All-Big Ten cornerback, Eric Murray will graduate from Minnesota as one of the best defensive players to take the field under former defensive coordinator (now head coach) Tracy Claeys and former defensive backs coach (now defensive coordinator) Jay Sawvel. Murray, along with fellow graduating senior cornerback Briean Boddy-Calhoun, is expected to join Brock Vereen and Cedric Thompson as former Gopher defensive backs from the Jerry Kill era to be drafted to the NFL.
