Looking back at the past 10 drafts (2011-20), let’s analyze which positions have been the most successful out of the twenties range in the NFL draft’s first round. We will use a few different metrics to measure the success rates of players selected at each position from No. 20 to No. 29 since 2011.

Before getting into the success rates, here is a look at the distribution of picks in the 20-29 range over the past 10 years. With 10 picks being made in this range per year, we are looking at data from 100 players in this study.
