NFL Draft since 2000

I thought this was pretty interesting...

Lists draft picks and most first rounders by conference since 2000.

The Buffs finished in the middle of the pack in the Big 12 and that was with probably a half a decade of mediocrity. One of the last schools to have someone go in the first round though...

Unbelievable that ISU has not had a first rounder since 73. That is almost 40 years ago. Big George Amundson, kid was a freakish athlete and a nice guy. Was the Big 8 player of the year when another Big 8 player (Johnny Rodgers) won the Heisman.

Interesting that Notre Dame has had only 2 first rounders in that time frame. Definitely no longer getting the talent they once were.

But according to Rivals they have a top 20 class every year, and that 90% of the kids they get are 4 star prospects.

That was pretty cool. Jim Tressell is leading the country in players drafted...no wonder OSU fan wants to keep him.
