Mason Graham has been a dominant interior defender ever since he stepped on Michigan’s campus in 2022. Now, the All-American defensive tackle and national champion will make the jump to the next level.

According to a report from NFL insider Adam Schefter, Graham has declared for the 2025 NFL Draft while hiring Drew Rosenhaus and Ryan Matha to represent him. It’s not a surprising move with Rosenhaus even indicating they expect Graham to go within the top 5 picks of the draft.

While at Michigan, Graham amassed 108 total tackles, 18 TFLs and 9 sacks. And while those numbers are impressive from an interior defensive lineman, they do not tell the full story.

Graham traditionally demanded a double team up front and punished teams who did not allocate the necessary resources to block him. He is also far from just a run-stopper along the interior.

Listed at 6-foot-3 and 320 pounds, Graham has an impressive first step and elite athleticism. He has an elite blend of physical traits and the necessary skills to impose those traits in the trenches.

We’ll see where Graham eventually winds up in the draft, but he should remain in the conversation to become the top non-quarterback drafted in the spring.
