C.J. Stroud, Jaxon Smith-Njigba Headline Ohio State’s Potential 2023 NFL Draft Prospects

After Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave were both selected within the first 11 picks of the 2022 NFL draft, Ohio State has had at least two first-round picks in seven of the last nine years.

There appears to be a high degree of likelihood that streak will continue in 2023.

Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud is already being projected as a possible No. 1 overall pick in many of the preliminary 2023 NFL mock drafts that have already been released. And some draft analysts believe Jaxon Smith-Njigba is an even better prospect than Wilson and Olave, setting up the distinct possibility he could also be a top-10 pick next year.
