NFL Buckeyes Tracker 11-14-2023 update = 61 NFL Buckeyes - 37 starters

OHIO STATE PASSES USC FOR MOST FIRST-ROUND NFL DRAFT PICKS ALL-TIME

113647_h.jpg


The Buckeyes are the king of the first round.

Ohio State and USC entered the night tied for the most first-round selections all-time, but just two picks into the 2020 NFL Draft, the Buckeyes moved to the top.

The Washington Redskins' selection of Chase Young with the No. 2 overall pick gave the Buckeyes 82 first-round picks all-time, moving them one pick ahead of USC's total of 81 first-round selections.

Ohio State finished the night with 84 all-time first-round picks, as Jeff Okudah was selected No. 3 overall by the Detroit Lions and Damon Arnette drafted No. 19 overall by the Las Vegas Raiders. USC had just one player selected in the first round on Thursday night – Austin Jackson, who was selected No. 18 overall by the Miami Dolphins – bringing them to 82 first-round picks all-time.

All jokes aside, Ohio State’s success at producing NFL defensive backs has been actually absurd. Starting with Bradley Roby himself in 2014 (No. 31 overall), the Buckeyes have had a first round corner in five (sorry Bradley, you were one off) of the last seven NFL Drafts. They have, however, now had six first round CBs in the last five drafts.

They took the year off in 2015, ironically the year they won the National Championship, but returned to the forefront with Eli Apple in 2016 (No. 10). Ohio State produced three first round DBs in 2017, with Marshon Lattimore (No. 11), Malik Hooker (No. 15) and Gareon Conley (No. 24) all selected early, and added another in 2018 with Denzel Ward (No. 4). With no DBs selected in the first in 2019, they returned to form this year with both Jeff Okudah (No. 3) and Damon Arnette (No. 19).

SKULL SESSION: BUCKEYES AMONG THE BEST AT PRODUCING NFL TALENT, A ONE-TIME TRANSFER WAIVER IS ON HOLD, AND URBAN MEYER RELIVES 2016 EDITION OF THE GAME

DEVELOPED HERE. Anyone with at least some cognitive function could probably tell you that Ohio State has been elite at developing NFL talent the past few years, but 247Sports has just worked out a way to quantify it.

As we exit the 2020 NFL Draft, this is an ideal time to examine development. 247Sports’ annual list of 32 five-star recruits mirrors the first round of the NFL Draft, which makes the Top247 a great place to start. Top247 players are consider the best prospects in their class. Under the right circumstances – health, a good work ethic, character and high-level coaching – talents of that level generally thrive.

To provide a concrete measure of developmental prowess, 247Sports dove into Top247 data to see how top programs have cultivated their four and five-star talent. The examination covered a five-year period between the 2011 and 2015 classes, covering the full scope of a player’s potential eligibility – there are a few sixth-year holdouts remaining from the 2015 class that didn't factor into the data set.

To fairly access a successful development, 247Sports created a “Development Rating.”

It's a measure that takes into account the total number of Top247 prospects a program signed along with where/if those players were drafted (3 points for 1st rounders, 2 points for 2nd-3rd, 1 for 4th-7th), dividing the total number of prospects by the point total to create the rating. This removes any advantage created by a program’s ability to recruit an overwhelming number of Top247 players. It also rewards programs that produce more first- and second-day picks, removing a "quantity over quality" argument. We also limited this list to teams that recruited at least 10 Top247 players from 2011 to 2015.

It's an Urban Meyer-approved methodology (and I'm sure he ain't exactly pissed about the results, either).



Obviously, the biggest shortcoming with this system is that it doesn't reward teams for producing three-star talent into NFL Draft prospects, which is undeniably more impressive than pumping four and five-star talent to The Leauge.

But that's okay, because someone else already looked at that data earlier this week, and it turns out that Ohio State turns more three-star players into NFL Draft picks than any other program, despite signing far fewer three-star prospects in the first place. Meanwhile, Alabama ain't even in the top-10 on that list.

Basically, if you want to go to the NFL, come to Ohio State.
