NFL Draft history: Marshawn Lynch the best Cal Bear drafted this past decade

Part 2 of our top ten Golden Bears drafted in the league.

5. Linebacker Mychal Kendricks, picked 46th in 2nd round by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2012: The Eagles haven't had a great defense lately, but Mychal has been their best defender for much of that time, and it's paid off with a huge contract.

4. Defensive tackle Brandon Mebane, picked 85th in 3rd round by the Seattle Seahawks in 2007: Mebane has been one of the best run stuffers in the league and has been paramount to the success of the Seahawks defense.

3. Defensive end Cameron Jordan, picked 24th in 1st round by the New Orleans Saints in 2011: Jordan is a pure defensive force in New Orleans, earning two Pro Bowl appearances and terrorizing backfields constantly.

2. Center Alex Mack, picked 21st in 1st round by the Cleveland Browns in 2009. One of the best offensive linemen in football, Mack has always been recognized for his performance despite struggling in his time with the Browns.

1. Running back Marshawn Lynch, picked 12th in 1st round by Buffalo Bills in 2006: Beast Mode. One of the best tailbacks in the NFL the past decade, Lynch picked up one Super Bowl ring with the Seahwaks and came very close to another before hanging it up this offseason.
