And no, it isn’t a massive exaggeration. Let’s go ahead and write down the rosters on the offense and defense for Ohio State in that game and revisit in five years. I guarantee you more than half of those guys are signed by NFL teams at some point.
The point isn’t they could play in the NFL now. The point is that they have all the intangibles and they are stud college players who will play in the league. Fast, strong, and Uber talented.
On offense, Stroud, Henderson, Smith-N, Fleming, Harrison, Egbuka, Ruckert, and likely the majority of the offensive line will eventually sign with NFL teams. That isn’t an exaggeration.
