My favorite defensive player in the 2024 NFL Draft is Michigan’s two-time captain and deluxe slot CB Mike Sainristil.
I must confess to be a little biased with regard to Mike Sainristil. He played in the Greater Boston League at Everrett High School MA, under head coach John DiBiaso. Coach DiBiaso turned the Everett program into a juggernaut —- leading the Crimson Tide to 5 Division 1 Super Bowl Championships. Back in the late 1990s, I had the privilege of coaching against John DiBiaso while I was at Arlington H.S. His teams were always extremely talented and well coached.
