Ohio State football head coach Urban Meyer got to sit back and smile at the 2016 NFL Draft last weekend, as 12 of his former Buckeyes players heard their names called. Ten of the Ohio State football stars were selected in the first three rounds, with Joey Bosa and Ezekiel Elliott going in the top five.

The numbers speak for themselves.
