- Ohio State -1/2 Players Drafted +225
Both schools are expected to produce top ten picks in the draft. Ohio State’s Chase Young is projected to go number two overall on many mock drafts while Clemson’s Isaiah Simmons could potentially be picked at number eight according to NFL Insider Perter King. It’s after that where things get a bit muddy.
The only other player from Ohio State that’s a lock for a first round pick is cornerback Jeff Okudah. Clemson meanwhile might see wide receiver Tee Higgins and cornerback A.J. Terrell possibly sneak into the late first round. This may explain why bettors are hammering Clemson’s odds here.
Finally, Auburn has the shortest odds against Georgia to have the most first-round picks. Georgia has 19 first-round draft picks since 2000, making them eighth. Auburn has only had 10 first-round picks in the same amount of time.
