Michigan C Cesar Ruiz declares for 2020 NFL draft

Michigan center Cesar Ruiz is leaving school early to enter the 2020 NFL draft

An already deep class of center prospects is getting another strong addition from the Big Ten.

Michigan’s Cesar Ruiz is leaving school early to enter the 2020 NFL draft. He made his announcement via social media Friday.

A 6-4, 319-pound junior, Ruiz has made 25 of his 30 career starts at center, but his experience at guard shows the kind of versatility that will be valuable to NFL teams. One of the best pass-blocking centers in the nation, Ruiz could warrant Day 2 consideration, and he could end up being a plug-and-play starter in the right situation.
