Jake Rudock spent one season at Michigan after transferring from Iowa, taking snaps in his final year from center Graham Glasgow. The pair will reunite at the next level in Detroit, with the Lions taking Rudock with the 16th of the sixth round.
Rudock worked through some rough moments in the early portion of the season, but finished very strong, throwing 15 touchdowns in the final six games with just three interceptions over that span. On the year, he completed 64.0% of his throws for 3,017 yards, 20 passing touchdowns and four rushing scores.
Only John Navarre threw for more yards in a season for Michigan in 2003.
