Michigan cornerback Will Johnson has joined defensive tackle Mason Graham in the NFL draft.

Johnson declared for the draft on Wednesday, a day after Graham decided he would also skip his senior season with the Wolverines.

Both preseason All-America players are expected to be selected in the first round.

Johnson was limited to six games this year due to injury. He had two interceptions and returned both for touchdowns to set a school record with three scores after interceptions. Johnson picked off nine passes in three seasons.

Graham played in all 12 games this season and finished with 3 1/2 sacks and seven tackles for losses. He had 18 tackles for losses, including nine sacks, in his three-year career.

Michigan (7-5) will play No. 11 Alabama on Dec. 31 in the ReliaQuest Bowl in Tampa, Florida.
