Ohio State’s historical NFL Draft run and an interesting hypothetical
Ohio State set a new record for the Ryan Day era in the 2025 NFL Draft with four players selected in the first round, the most with him as the head coach.

On this episode of Buckeye Talk, Stephen Means and Stefan Krajisnik break down all four picks while also posing an interesting question about its choice at quarterback in 2024.
