Ohio State saw four players taken in the first round of the NFL draft. Wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, offensive lineman Donovan Jackson, defensive tackle Tyleik Williams and offensive tackle Josh Simmons were all among the last 13 picks of the opening round.

Ohio State offensive tackle Josh Simmons made it four Buckeyes selected in the first round of the 2025 NFL draft when he was taken by the Chiefs.

This year's class isn't loaded with players that look like potential superstars on paper. But the 2025 Ohio State NFL draft crew is simply loaded with talent and depth, perhaps more than any other school. Twelve Buckeyes are listed in the top 100 of the B/R NFL Scouting Department big board alone, with 14 on the top 250.
