64 THE WOLVERINE ❱ SEPTEMBER 2024 ❱ MICHIGAN IN THE PROS checked in tied 12th with 11.5 sacks. Ac- cording to DraftKings Sportsbook, the Lions have the fourth-best odds to win the Super Bowl (+1200). C Olu Oluwatimi, Seattle Sea- hawks: Listed atop the team's unof- ficial depth chart at center, Oluwatimi is set to go from backup to starter in his second season. The team recently traded away center Nick Harris after Oluwatimi impressed with 45 snaps in a preseason win over the Los Angeles Chargers, signaling confidence in the former winner of the Outland (best interior lineman) and Rimington (best center) trophies at U-M in 2022. OL Mike Onwenu, New England Patriots: This offseason, Onwenu inked a three-year, $57 million contract to remain with the Patriots. He's slated as the starter at right tackle, after fin- ishing 24th among NFL tackles with a 71.5 overall Pro Football Focus grade in 2023 (minimum 700 snaps). DE Kwity Paye, Indianapolis Colts: NFL trainer Eddy McGilvera, who's known for developing defensive linemen, proclaimed in July that he'd "never seen a guy have an offseason like Kwity Paye." The former Michigan star is heading into his fourth campaign in the league. Paye was second on the Colts with 8.5 sacks a season ago and is currently listed as a starter at defensive end. CB Mike Sainristil, Washington Commanders: One of the few Michi- gan rookies projected to start right away, Sainristil plays the "star" — or nickel back — position for a Commanders team entering a new era under head man Dan Quinn. Washington defensive backs coach Tommy Donatell said this about Sainristil during training camp: "This dude triggers. When he sees something, he goes. There's no hesitation in this guy's game."
