Michigan starting LB Junior Colson, who has been a contributor/starter for three seasons with the Wolverines, has entered the NFL Draft, Pete Thamel reports:

With Colson set to the NFL Draft and Michael Barrett Jr. set to graduate, Michigan will have two open starting LB spots.
Ernest Hausmann certainly seems like he will earn one and Jimmy Rolder Jr. and many other youngsters are also in contention.
Look for Colston to get drafted in the 1st/2nd or 3rd rounds.
