Analyst: Rashan Gary ‘more athlete than football player’ but has huge upside

Former Michigan defensive end Rashan Gary is a projected first-round NFL Draft selection, but how early he is drafted has varied among NFL analysts.

Gary, along with former Wolverines Devin Bush, Chase Winovich, Karan Higdon, Zach Gentry and David Long, will work out at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis this week. The NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah, during a conference call Monday, said Gary could go very early in the draft.

Jeremiah ranked his top 50 prospects and has Ohio State’s Nick Bosa going No. 1 overall, followed by three defensive linemen. Gary, however, dropped from fourth on a previous list to eighth mainly because of his lack of production.
