In Todd McShay’s latest mock draft he has four Buckeyes going in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft. Just how good of a fit and how close McShay is can and should be discussed. You can probably guess a couple of the players, but there is a surprise or two in there.
Assuming the Big Ten doesn’t change course and play in the fall, and no one gets hurt playing in the spring or the stock drops because of being out of sight out of mind, these four are all players who could be picked in the first round of the draft. For discussion’s sake, we will assume the players come out regardless of what happens with the NCAA and any change of heart that could occur from not being able to play one last time in the Scarlet and Gray.
Here’s where we are with the four players McShay has going in the first round.
