While it may have been fodder for rival fans that Michigan football running back Donovan Edwards didn't get drafted this past weekend into the NFL, many of those same fans have players who were thought to be surefire draft picks who found themselves in the same boat.

Edwards finished his U-M career with nearly 3,200 all-purpose yards on offense, with 25 touchdowns and a perfect 4-0 record against Ohio State.

Former Michigan running back Donovan Edwards came into the 2025 NFL Draft projected to be a Day 3 pick but fell out of the draft altogether. He signed as an undrafted free agent with the New York Jets shortly after the draft ended.
