Way-too-early look at Ohio State football’s 2022 potential NFL draft class

The 2021 NFL draft has barely finished, and that means it’s time to focus our gaze on what 2022 might have in store for Ohio State players.

The 2021 NFL draft is in the books and it’s now time to turn the page towards the next one. After all, there are media personalities employed by several of the big boy media types who are paid to look at these sort of things year-round.

For Ohio State, there is always going to be a decent crop of talent ready to go on to the highest of levels in the National Football League, and it looks to be no different for 2022 when the draft takes place from April 28-30 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Heck, the Buckeyes had ten more players drafted in 2021, so the machine keeps on churning NFL widgets out.

So what players are likely to be in all the NFL shenanigans next year? It can all depend of course based on who decides to leave early, injuries, and a host of other factors, but here’s our best guess and projection as things sit with contracts yet to even be signed with the class of 2021.

This will of course change once the season gets going and in full swing. Someone else will jump up to get on NFL boards, and maybe a player or two will decide to put off dreams of NFL grandeur to play with the brotherhood one more season.
