Thirty-two players were selected during the first round of the 2024 NFL draft on Thursday night while nine members of last year’s Ohio State football team have a chance to be among the draft’s 257 total picks over the next three days.
It’s time for my best guesses at where each Buckeye will end up and how the entire first round of the NFL draft will play out.
Having started my sports media career as an NFL draft writer, I’ve published at least one mock draft every year for more than 15 years. My success in actually making correct projections has varied – among media members whose mock drafts have been scored by The Huddle Report for at least the past five years, my scoring average ranks just 49th out of 68, so I clearly have plenty of room for improvement.
