#1 THE Ohio State: 30 draft picks, 158 total points

2017:7 Picks (39 Points)

2016: 12 Picks (70 Points)

2015: 5 (19 Points)

2014: 6 Picks (30 Points)

No real surprise here.  Urban Meyer has safely put THE Ohio State Buckeyes in position to reload every year and never rebuild.  His SEC roots don’t hurt either.  There were 506 total draft picks in 2016-2017 and 3.7 percent have come from THE Ohio State.
