The SEC Dominated the NFL Draft Once Again

For the 14th (yes, you read that correctly) year in a row, the SEC proved to the entire country why they are the gold standard for college football. At the conclusion of the 2020 NFL Draft, the Southeastern Conference saw more players drafted than any other conference in the country – and it wasn’t close.

By the time Saturday evening came around and the last few picks were made, the SEC produced a total of 63 draft picks, 15 more than the next closest conference, the Big Ten. Through the first three rounds, the SEC’s dominance was even more clear.
