Sherrone Moore said in his Citrus Bowl presser that Michigan football won't have many players skipping the bowl game. With that being said, there are three obvious guys who have no incentive to put on the winged helmet again to push around Texas in the Citrus Bowl.
One man who is not on this list is Jyaire Hill. He's projected as a third-day selection and would be advised to give Michigan football one more go.
Derrick Moore Defensive End
Moore is Michigan's highest-rated player on most draft boards. He appears to be a day-two pick as of now, but could work his way up into the late stages of the first round with a blow-up type of performance at the combine and his pro day. He's in the top 15 of the sport with 10 sacks registered. Although a disappointing performance against Ohio State didn't help his draft stock.
Jaishawn Barham Linebacker
Barham has the versatility to play on the edge and at linebacker which will make him some money at the next level. He's a clear-cut day two pick who should remain that way throughout the process. Add to the fact that his senior campaign was not as disruptive as his junior circuit was. He'll definitley get grilled by NFL execs and coaches for head-butting an official in the Ohio State loss.

Justice Haynes Running Back
It's unknown for sure whether or not Haynes will return for one more rodeo at Michigan. He displayed to the NFL scouts that he has breakaway speed that they covet. Even if he does stay in Ann Arbor, it would be pointless to play in Orlando, especially since his counterpart Jordan Marshall has already committed to suiting up. Haynes would be an instant Heisman favorite if he doesn't leave. Haynes also resembles a day two entertainer for the NFL circles.
