After impressing teams on the field and proving they are capable of playing at the next level, Nick Bosa, Dwayne Haskins and several Ohio State prospects are set to begin their careers as professional football players after being selected in this week's NFL draft.
Years ago, each of those prospects had to do the same thing as recruits, demonstrating that they were capable of playing at Ohio State before ultimately earning scholarship offers – and deciding to accept those scholarship offers – to become Buckeyes.
Through the first three rounds of the 2019 NFL draft, Ohio State has had five players selected: Bosa, Haskins, Parris Campbell, Dre'Mont Jones and Terry McLaurin.
