It’s one thing to be selected in the NFL draft, but when that jersey number goes on the new colors, it all hits home a little harder. That’s what happened this week for all the new blood in the NFL, and with Ohio State seeing eleven guys go in this year’s crop, there are plenty of Buckeyes running around in new digits.
Of course, not all players receive new jersey numbers, but because the NFL has a different way of assigning numbers to certain position groups, the majority do, and that’s what we’ve seen with the OSU players as well.
So, if this sort of thing interests you, here’s a look at all of the Ohio State NFL draft picks and the jersey numbers they will be wearing on Sundays (and Mondays and Thursdays, and sometimes on Saturdays).
