Michigan Wolverines
QB J.J. McCarthy
Though he hasn't made a decision regarding his future in Maize and Blue, the most intriguing NFL draft prospect on Michigan's roster is McCarthy. He's mocked No. 13 overall by CBS Sports, and in other cases, he's not considered a first-round talent.
I'm sure NFL general managers would love to see him carry his team more often, but he has all the skills, leadership acumen and makeup to be a long-time NFL pro.
RB Blake Corum
Good things come in small packages in Corum's case, and while running backs aren't normally considered a hot commodity in the draft, you'd be hard-pressed to find one more productive than him.
The questions will surround his durability following last year's season-ending knee injury, but the 5'8", 213-pound runner churns out yards, packs a punch and can break away from defenders. He will have a nice pro career. It's just unfortunate he can't run behind Zak Zinter, who suffered a season-ending leg injury against Ohio State or he'd be on here as one of the top guards taken.
DL Kris Jenkins
Jenkins would be a nice bet for a Day 2 pick as a 6'3", 305-pound defensive tackle. Bleacher Report's scouting department loves his ability to play against the run, and he helped swallow up runners throughout the Alabama game.
Is he athletic enough to fend off double-teams and collapse pockets to harass the passing game at the next level? It's a good question, but Jenkins is certain to be drafted and makes this list when Michigan doesn't have a ton of coveted draft-eligible guys.
Washington Huskies
WR Rome Odunze
Unequivocally, Odunze is a first-round talent who could surge up draft boards and be the third or even second receiver taken. Bleacher Report's Joe Tansey has Odunze as the third receiver off the board behind Marvin Harrison Jr. and Malik Nabers, going to Chicago at No. 10.
Odunze is a big-play receiver and Penix's top weapon. When the Huskies need a big play, they look to their go-to guy who can do it all.
IOL Troy Fautanu
People don't talk much about Washington's offensive line because Penix gets the ball out so quickly, but running back Dillon Johnson had a big season because of a stout line, spearheaded by Fautanu.
He may wind up being the first guard taken in the draft, and CBS Sports has him at the end of the first round. He is a powerful, well-rounded interior lineman who doesn't get a lot of the headlines but just does his job.
Edge Bralen Trice
There wasn't a more disruptive defender in the entire College Football Playoff semifinals than Trice, who blew up Texas' offensive line and harassed quarterback Quinn Ewers throughout the game. He lived in the backfield.
Outland Trophy winner T'Vondre Sweat and Alabama edge-rusher Dallas Turner generated a bunch of the headlines, but Trice is a jumbo edge who plays with a mean streak. At 6'4", 275 pounds, he's the ideal size for an NFL edge, and he produced this year with 46 tackles, including 11.5 for a loss and seven sacks.
QB Michael Penix Jr.
One of the most polarizing quarterbacks in the draft will be Penix. He's doubtfully a first-round pick, but a veteran who can make all the throws, has ideal timing and the type of leadership that can elevate programs will be coveted.
His injury history is a major question mark, and there are more skilled quarterbacks than Penix. But he puts up big-time numbers, and he wins. And he's a warrior who doesn't quit. Somebody is going to get a future starter picking him up.
