Just heard Rothman say Coach Ginn is the only HS coach with 9 former players currently in the NFL...unfortunately I think Ginn, Browning, Hines and Whitner are the only ones that were Buckeyes.

Any one else notice the balance of Buckeye representation by conference?

AFC team rosters -- 16 Buckeyes

NFC Team rosters -- 34 Buckeyes

Just a coincidence?
Or are the NFC general managers and coaches smarter and better evaluators of talent?

it jumped off the page at me when i reorganized my post of the active players. The NFC North has almost as many Buckeyes as the entire AFC!

Especially when 2 of the best players never really made it (Doss, Clarett).

Doss played almost 60 games in the NFL over 6 seasons, including 40 games his first 3 seasons. I'd say he really made it. He may not have been an all pro, but with an average NFL career being about 3 years he did better than most.

http://nflcommunications.com/2011/04/18/what-is-average-nfl-player%E2%80%99s-career-length-longer-than-you-might-think-commissioner-goodell-says/

That 6.0 average is 88 percent higher than NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith’s recent claim.
“The fundamental principle of our business model necessarily includes that every player only plays for an average of 3.2 years,” Smith said in a March 31 forum with MBA students at the University of Virginia.
Following are the facts from the career-length analysis (using regular-season and postseason rosters):

  • The average career length for a player who makes a club’s opening-day roster (active/inactive roster or injured reserve) in his rookie season is 6.0 years.

  • The average career length for a player with at least three pension-credited seasons* is 7.1 years (*a player receives a pension credit for each season in which he spends at least three games on an active/inactive roster and/or injured reserve).

  • The average career length for a first-round draft pick is 9.3 years.

  • The average career length for a player who is selected for or plays in at least one Pro Bowl is 11.7 years. Of the 318 players who began careers between 1993 and 2002 and made the Pro Bowl at least once, 113 of those players – 36 percent – were on a club’s roster in 2010.

  • There are 288 players who began their careers between 1993-2002 who were on a club’s roster in 2010.

I'd say Doss is right in the middle of the bell curve on playing career.
