In terms of number of players taken, the upcoming 2017 UNC NFL draft class could end up being one of the most prolific in school history. As many as nine players seem to have at least decent chances of getting drafted this year, and there’s a high probably Carolina will have a first round quarterback in Mitch Trubisky. With the potential for the 2017 Tar Heel draft class as high as it is, where might it stack up in North Carolina history?
If nine players are drafted this year, it would match the 2011 draft.
