With the Super Bowl in the rearview mirror, and with Ohio State having succumbed to Alabama in the national championship game, that more or less brings the American football season to an end. Yes, we know, there is counseling available for this sort of thing, but it’s now time to turn the page to the 2021 NFL draft.
With that in mind, we keep like to keep our gaze fixed on what the folks at Draft Wire are doing as we step through things towards the annual spectacle that has become the NFL draft. And now, with all teams having polished off the season, we even know the order of the picks, so this thing starts to get even more real.
And, since you’re here, we assume you are interested in where Ohio State players are falling in all of these mock drafts. The Buckeyes have fourteen total players eligible for the draft, so you would expect a parade of scarlet and gray. However, as you’ll see, there will either be a slew of OSU players taken in the middle to late rounds, or everyone has this thing wrong because there aren’t many draft experts picking Buckeye players to go in the early rounds.
Draft Wire is no different. In fact, it only has two Ohio State players going in the first two rounds, and we’re here to tell you who they are.
