Top three draft picks were once teammates at Ohio State

Top three draft picks, Joe Burrow, Chase Young and Jeff Okudah, were teammates at Ohio State during the 2017 season.

It marked the third time the Buckeyes have had two players selected in the top-five of the NFL Draft, which is the most of any program in draft history.

Ohio native Joe Burrow was the first draft pick and will be playing for the Cincinnati Bengals.

Burrow left Ohio State after the 2017 season to play for the LSU Tigers where in 2019 he became a national champion and won the Heisman Trophy.

Chase Young was the second draft pick and will be playing for the Washington Redskins.

Young played his first season in 2017 for Ohio State where he played for three years and won Nagurski–Woodson Defensive Player of the Year in 2019.

Jeff Okudah was the third draft pack and will be playing for the Detroit Lions.

Okudah played his freshman season at OSU where he finished his career and named a finalist for the Jim Thorpe Award in 2019.
