How many Ohio State Buckeyes will hear their name called during the 2026 NFL Draft (scheduled April 23-25 in Pittsburgh)? Better yet, how many will go in the top 10?
The Buckeyes may be positioned to do something that’s been done once in the common-draft era (which began in 1967 as a part of the AFL-NFL merger): have four players go in the top 10 of the draft.
When was the last time a school had four players go in top 10 of 2026 NFL Draft?
Citing ESPN Research, Rich Cimini shared that the Michigan State Spartans were the last school to have four players go in the top 10 (1967).
The Spartans selected were defensive end Bubba Smith (Baltimore Colts, pick No. 1), running back Clint Jones (Minnesota Vikings, pick No. 2), linebacker George Webster (Houston Oilers, pick No. 5) and wide receiver Gene Washington (Vikings, pick No. 8).
