03/26/14 - 2014 Pro Days: Trio of Wolverines star at Michigan Pro Day...Wideout Jeremy Gallon built upon his own sparkling showing in Indianapolis during the Pro Day workout, however, recording a 10-10" broad jump and a 39.5" vertical -- explosiveness which complements the 4.49-second 40-yard dash he ran at the Combine. At just 5-foot-7 (1/2), 184 pounds, Gallon lacks the size scouts would prefer and he is competing against a receiver group that is as deep and talented as any position in the draft. He's a proven playmaker who recorded a career-high 80 receptions for 1,284 yards and nine scores as a senior and could prove a steal if still on the board in the late rounds. - Rob Rang, NFLDraftScout.com
12/05/13 - 2013 ALL-BIG TEN SECOND TEAM (MEDIA): Jeremy Gallon, Michigan, Receiver...Gallon, whose 1,284 receiving yards in 2013 rank second all-time on U-M's single-season list, received his selection from both the coaches and the media. - Michigan football
10/22/13 - In Michigan's shootout win over Indiana, 63-47, on Saturday, senior wide receiver Jeremy Gallon showed why some scouts believe he has top-100 potential. He finished with 369 receiving yards, setting a new Big Ten and Michigan record and coming close to the FBS all-time mark (405 – Troy Edwards, Louisiana Tech). Gallon did a nice job getting open and then once he had the ball, he didn't waste time stretching the field and finding the end zone. His short, built stature is reminiscent of former Notre Dame wideout Golden Tate, who went on to be a second rounder of the Seattle Seahawks. Gallon entered the 2013 season with draft grades all over the map, many scouts thinking he was undraftable. But performances like his on Saturday make it impossible for next level decision-makers to ignore his playmaking ability. - Dane Brugler, NFLDraftScout.com
10/21/13 - WEEK 8 COLLEGE FOOTBALL STARS: Jeremy Gallon, Michigan, had a Big Ten-record 369 yards receiving and two TDs against Indiana. - AP Sports
