John DeShazier: Ohio State pro day features plenty of future NFL players

Columbus, Ohio – The forecast for Ohio State isn’t quite the same as last year regarding the NFL draft, when the Buckeyes flooded the league with 10 players drafted in the first three rounds, and 12 players selected overall.

But it’s not exactly a drought.

Most of the 13 Buckeyes who participated in Pro Day at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center on Thursday are projected to be drafted, which explained the presence of many NFL coaches and personnel men, including Saints Coach Sean Payton, defensive coordinator Dennis Allen, secondary coach Aaron Glenn and receivers coach Curtis Johnson.
