Bush kills it at the combine

When it comes down to it, Devin Bush is one of the best defensive players Michigan football has had under Jim Harbaugh and the only one with more accomplishments to his name is probably Jabrill Peppers, who finished as a Heisman finalist.

Sunday,  Bush showed the NFL what Michigan fans have known for the past two years and that is that he’s an athletic freak.

Bush, who measured 5-foot-11 and 236 pounds, turned heads with a 4.46 40 time, which was lights out for a linebacker that has a reputation for being a three-down player.

After finishing with18.5 tackles for loss as well as 10 career sacks to go along with 11 passes broken up and an interception, Bush gave NFL teams more reason to use a first-round pick on him after showing he can run. He had a good shot of being a first-round pick before with all his production, but now, I’d wouldn’t be shocked if he went in the top 20.
