Michigan football held its annual pro day in Ann Arbor on Friday, and afterward, 10 players met with the media to discuss it. But that's not what we're talking about.

Perhaps the position group with the most intrigue for Michigan football this offseason is cornerback, due to both DJ Turner and Gemon Green moving on, but Will Johnson is coming back for his second year, and all the buzz has been about Amorion Walker moving over from wide receiver.
