It’s been years since the NFL’s last supplemental draft. The last player selected via the supplemental draft process was Jalen Thompson, a safety who was taken in the fifth round by the Arizona Cardinals back in 2019.
There are a couple of reasons why players aren’t testing the NFL beyond the traditional draft. First of all, the NCAA continues to lose legal battles around player movement and compensation, which is allowing players to earn at the college level and transfer at will. In this world, a Terrelle Pryor (2011 third-round pick) never gets suspended by the NCAA for “improper benefits” and never has to enter the supplemental draft in the first place.
