Ohio State Football: Great draft class for Ryan Day, Urban has to love it

The Ohio State football team was outstanding during the 2019 season under first year head coach Ryan Day and 10 players were rewarded by hearing their names called during the NFL Draft. Urban Meyer had to love that as nine were his recruits adding to an already impressive total.

The two coaches were a terrific combo, Urban brought talented players to Columbus and Ryan kept them on the right track. Let’s look at the 10 players about to earn a nice payday.

First Round: DE Chase Young, Washington Redskins (2), CB Jeff Okudah, Detroit Lions (3) and CB Damon Arnette, Las Vegas Raiders (19)

As freshmen you could see why Young and Okudah were five-star recruits as they performed well in limited action.
