Good poll for discussion purposes but I have 2 comments:

1) I hate to pick players (with eligibility remaining) to opt out and declare for the 2022 NFL Draft. I'm sure for most of them I'd much rather see them return to Ohio State for another year.

2) Re: This poll will close on May 3, 2022 at 10:53 AM.
Re: The 2022 NFL Draft will be the 87th annual meeting of National Football League (NFL) franchises to select newly eligible players. The draft is expected to be held in Las Vegas, Nevada in late April 2022.
I nominate you to do the vBets, i.e. close the betting a few days after the event happens......:lol:

Ten players selected in back-to-back drafts

The Buckeyes have now had 10 selections in two-consecutive drafts. If they can pull off double-digits in 2022, they will become only the second team to have a streak of three-straight drafts of 10 or more picks. Only one school has done that since the NFL’s current seven-round format was instituted in 1994 — Alabama from 2017 to 2019. Hitting the milestone is completely feasible for Ohio State. Garrett Wilson, Zach Harrison, Thayer Munford, Sevyn Banks and Chris Olave each could be first-round picks next year. Add Tyreke Smith, Jeremy Ruckert, Marcus Williamson and Haskell Garrett into the mix, and the Buckeyes are at the 10 needed players. Sprinkle in some possible juniors who have stellar seasons who choose to declare for the draft, Ohio State could be looking at one of its largest draft classes in recent memory. Reaching the three-peat would be quite the accomplishment for the Buckeyes. Even reaching this rare air, however, is impressive. Ohio State now joins Alabama and USC as the only three schools to ever hit double-digits in two-straight years.

Just sayin': I only counted 9.....:biggrin:

Just sayin': You gotta like this projected 2022 pick:

No. 51 Los Angeles Rams: Henry To’o To’o (LB)
After transferring from Tennessee, To’o To’o came in and gave an instant boost to the Buckeye defense. While he still had two years of collegiate eligibility remaining, he accomplished everything that he wanted to in his one season in Columbus, so the All-SEC and All-B1G linebacker opted for the NFL, and the move paid off in sunny, Southern California.

I don't see any NFL draft picks there based off college production unless it's the kicker.

DRAFT-ELIGIBLE PLAYERS WITH DECISIONS TO MAKE
WR Garrett Wilson
OT Nicholas Petit-Frere
DE Zach Harrison
OT Dawand Jones
RB Master Teague
DT Taron Vincent

Wilson- gone and should go
NPF-certainly could be drafted if he goes
Harrison- Generally you need to be a difference maker in college to seriously entertain the idea of being drafted so whatever
Jones-see NPF
Teague-should go. Not sure if he's a draft pick but there is nothing else for him to do in college that will improve his stock. It's just more wear and tear.
Vincent-see Harrison, Zach.

So what, maybe 7-8 guys?
Offense
Munford
Olave
Ruckert
Wilson
NPF
D Jones
Ruggles

Defense
Garrett
Smith

Another pretty clear indicator of how bad defensive recruiting and development have been since 2018 recruiting class.

And while it was clear they weren't signing the greatest classes in history (like '17 with Young, Wade, Okudah, Browning, Davis, Dobbins, Myers, etc.), it's shocking that there haven't been more 2nd-4th round picks from the guys ranked around 80-200 (or the less beloved but still draftable 5 stars like Browning)

Yep. It's been both poor recruiting and poor development.

Injuries and COVID have something to do with it but it's been a long time since we've seen a draught like this.
