With the No. 106 pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks took former Michigan wide receiver Amara Darboh as the second to last player selected in the third round.
As a fifth-year senior in 2016, Darboh led the Wolverines in receiving with 57 receptions for 862 yards and seven touchdowns.
In his Michigan career, Darboh racked up 2,062 yards and scored 14 touchdowns in 49 games. In 2016, Darboh was named All-Big Ten Second-Team by the coaches and media. With Friday's selection, Darboh becomes the highest Michigan wide receiver drafted since Mario Manningham in 2008 when Manningham was the No. 95 overall pick.
Darboh was the second Wolverine selected by the Seahawks Friday. Former Michigan safety Delano Hill was also a third-selection by Seattle and both players will be reunited with former Michigan defender Frank Clark. Former Michigan running back Thomas Rawls is also a member of the Seahawks.
"Darboh just keeps showing up and keeps separating, and then going up and making plays on the ball," ESPN Draft analyst Todd McShay said during Friday's telecast. "Look at the body control and the ability to make your feet go dead on the sideline. He got better and better as his career progressed.
"He takes to hard coaching. He's a tireless worker, and hes a great blocker."
Here are some more reactions to the No. 106 pick.
