An early look at Ohio State’s draft-eligible players shows the Buckeyes could have one of their strongest and deepest NFL draft classes ever in 2024.
in each of the last two NFL drafts, but that number could go up in a big way next year.
Add in the possibility of breakout years for third-year Buckeyes like Jack Sawyer, Kyle McCord and Tyleik Williams, and the number of Buckeyes who should be on NFL radars entering the 2023 season climbs into the twenties. At 6-foot-4 and 205 pounds with elite athleticism, excellent route-running skill, a well-proven ability to, a work ethic that’s already become legendary in Columbus and Pro Football Hall of Fame bloodlines, Harrison has all the makings of an elite NFL wide receiver. He likely would have been a top-10 pick this year if he was eligible for the 2023 NFL draft, and he’s perhaps the surest bet of any prospect in the country to be one of the top picks in 2024.
While interior offensive linemen aren’t valued as highly in the NFL draft as offensive tackles, elite guard prospects can still be first-round picks, and Jackson is a real candidate to fit that bill. A stockier, more powerful back at 5-foot-9 and 225 pounds who’s shown plenty of agility in his own right, Williams is an NFL-ready runner who projects to be drafted no later than the middle rounds and be a quality addition to a team’s running back rotation. With a career average of 6.7 yards per carry, he’s shown plenty of ability to break off long runs in his own right, though NFL scouts will want to see him make more of an impact in the passing game.
In his move to the strong safety position last season, Ransom showed he could be a difference-maker in run support and was effective for most of the year in coverage. He’s also been an impactful special teams player throughout his Ohio State career, including two blocked punts last season, which will increase his appeal to NFL teams as a likely middle-round prospect.
With only 27 career tackles and 2.5 career sacks, Hamilton needs to become more of a playmaker if he’s going to be more than a late-round draft pick. But he has a great blueprint to follow from his older brother DaVon, who also had a quiet start to his Ohio State career but became a third-round NFL draft pick after becoming a disruptive force on the Buckeyes’ interior defensive line in 2019.
