Related Topics: Nashville, Tennessee

Our college football writer is counting down the days until the 2019 season. Here are the Big Ten teams to follow during the NFL draft, which begins April 25 and runs through April 27 in Nashville, Tenn.:

1. Ohio State

Only Alabama and Clemson had more players at the NFL combine than the Buckeyes. The prize is defensive end Nick Bosa, who will likely be the first non-quarterback selected. And quarterback Dwayne Haskins will be grabbed early in the first round.

2. Michigan

Wisconsin and Penn State had more players invited to the combine.
