Michigan Football: Could Maurice Hurst fall past first round in NFL draft?

When the season ended for Michigan football star Maurice Hurst, it looked like a forgone conclusion that he would be a first-round pick in the 2018 NFL draft. Yet, after some issues with his heart, that might not be the case any longer.

The issue with Hurst’s heart was discovered during the NFL combine, where he was unable to test. However, after consulting with a doctor, Hurst was cleared to participate in the pro day for Michigan football and did so with seemingly no issues.

That appeared to stabilize his stock, but according to ESPN’s Todd McShay, there is a chance Hurst falls out of the first round.
