On Monday, Michigan defensive lineman Rashan Gary announced he would forego his senior season. He would thus enter the 2019 NFL Draft and go pro next season.
It was perfect timing for “MMQB” of Sports Illustrated, who released their second mock draft on Tuesday. The major news publication has the Wolverine defensive lineman going No. 5 overall to the New York Giants.
This, of course, would be in the event that the NFL season ended today (and the No. 5 slot holds up).
With each projected pick comes a brief explanation by SI writers has to why the selection would make sense.
