JUST NOW: Baltimore Ravens head coach just summitted his resignation letter to the management.

Here’s a look at the numbers that the former Bulldogs will be rocking on Sundays.

The Georgia Bulldogs had yet another productive NFL draft, as the Bulldogs saw eight players get drafted and another four sign with teams as free agents. These players have slowly but surely been getting acclimated to life as NFL players, which now includes what digits they’ll be wearing at the next level.

The Bulldogs started rolling off the board in the first round, when Brock Bowers went to the Las Vegas Raiders at No. 13 overall and Amarius Mims went to the Cincinnati Bengals at No. 18. Ladd McConkey (Los Angeles Chargers), Kamari Lassiter (Houston Texans), and Javon Bullard (Green Bay Packers) all went in the second round before Tykee Smith (Tampa Bay Buccaneers) went off the board in the third.

No Bulldog was selected in the fourth round, but Sedrick Van Pran went to the Buffalo Bills in the fifth round. Zion Logue was the eighth and final Bulldog selected when the Atlanta Falcons chose him in the sixth round.

Kendall Milton, Daijun Edwards, Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, and Tramel Walthour all went undrafted but signed free-agent deals shortly after the draft. Milton landed with the Philadelphia Eagles, Edwards joined the Pittsburgh Steelers, Rosemy-Jacksaint signed with the Washington Commanders, and Tramel Walthour became part of the Baltimore Ravens.

Let’s take a look at all 12 of these Georgia players and the numbers they’ll be wearing in the NFL:

Aside from former Florida tight end Kyle Pitts, Bowers has to be viewed as one of the top tight end prospects of the modern era.

Bowers is a fluid receiver and showed himself to be a reliable target with sure hands. Bowers not only routinely got open downfield but always seemed to use his physicality to his advantage, which led to broken tackles and pushing piles forward for extra yardage.

There’s been questions about Bowers’ athleticism recently, but they are simply unfounded. He showed excellent speed for his position and put it on display quite a bit, including by occasionally taking end-arounds and turning them into big plays.

Bowers was also a quality run blocker in the Bulldogs’ offense. While he might not have delivered as many devastating blocks as teammate Darnell Washington, Bowers was more than willing to do the dirty work to spring one of his teammates free to run downfield.

To put it simply, Bowers is the full package at tight end.

In three years at Georgia, Bowers had 175 receptions for 2,538 yards and 26 touchdowns. He also had 19 carries for 193 yards and 5 touchdowns
