Notre Dame Football: Draft success shows continuous growth of program

Over the past 4 seasons, Notre Dame has had great success putting its players into the NFL Draft. The Irish have lost 15 games over the past 4 seasons, but 8 of those came in 2016. In other words, Notre Dame has experienced a great deal of success.

In those last 4 seasons, the Irish have had 19 plays get selected in the NFL Draft. If you were to compare that number to teams from the ACC, only Clemson (24) and Miami (22) have had more. On average, ACC teams have put just over 10 players per team into the NFL via the draft in the last 4 draft cycles.
