It was hard for me to track some of the Tigers, so I did my best to compile based on a list I could find to start:
Made the 53: Mackensie Alexander - Minnesota Vikings Jayron Kearse - Minnesota Vikings Bashaud Breeland - Kansas City Chiefs Dorian O'Daniel - Kansas City Chiefs Sammy Watkins - Kansas City Chiefs Clelin Ferrell - Oakland Raiders Hunter Renfrow - Oakland Raiders Trayvon Mullen - Oakland Raiders DeAndre Hopkins - Houston Texans Carlos Watkins - Houston Texans Deshaun Watson - Houston Texans D.J. Reader - Houston Texans Jaron Brown - Seattle Seahawks (cut by resigned today) Vic Beasley - Atlanta Falcons Grady Jarrett - Atlanta Falcons Mike Williams - LA Chargers Deon Cain -Indianapolis Colts Dexter Lawrence - New York Giants Wayne Gallman - New York Giants Adam Humphries - Tennessee Titans Tyler Shatley - Jacksonville Jaguars Brandon Thomas - Jacksonville Jaguars Shaq Lawson - Buffalo Bills Ray-Ray McCloud - Carolina Panthers (cut by Bills) Bradley Pinion - Tampa Bay Buccaneers Christian Wilkins - Miami Dolphins
Traded: Mark Fields - traded from Chiefs to Vikings (on 53) B.J. Goodson - traded from Giants to Packers (on 53)
IR: Austin Bryant - Detroit Lions
PUP: Cordrea Tankersley - Miami Dolphins
Unsure: Jordan Leggett - not listed on Bucs PS despite reports
Practice Squad: Albert Huggins - Houston Texans Mitch Hyatt - Dallas Cowboys Artavis Scott - LA Chargers (thought he would have made 53, but they clearly like him)

I appreciate the time and effort compelling this list so that we can see what is happening with out Tigers that has entered the NFL...
One thing that I pray that our guys wanting to play in the NFL understands before jumping into the NFL environment. The NFL is a cruel and unforgiving business that is based on performance, skill, and experience. For juniors stepping out into that life style, you better be clear on how much you are needed within your position, and you better find out how much they want you by finding out exactly what your draft status will be before jumping out there and entering the draft as a junior. If you're not being projected as a 1st or 2nd rounder, you better keep your butt in school and get everything possible with experience and knowledge of the game, or risk being an undrafted free agent where 90% of those never even make it on a practice squad much less on a team.
For every position that needs to be filled on a NFL team, there are many, many players trying to fill those spots, and you want just be competing against other junior and seniors just out of college competing for those spots, the NFL teams will look at players that had been cut from other teams that may already have a few years of NFL experience added to their resume that will most likely be picked over a player fresh out college. So for all the juniors jumping into the NFL draft, if you're not projected in the 1st or 2nd round, your chances will increase just a tad more as senior fresh out of college!!!
