Most of Ohio State's underclassmen NFL declarations were relatively expected once the season started to really get going, as talents like Joey Bosa, Michael Thomas, Vonn Bell and more had clearly demonstrated they were ready for a step up in competition. One of the few that might have raised a few eyebrows was H-Back/WR Jalin Marshall.
Marshall's speed and athletic ability are not in dispute. He was a productive player during his two seasons of action at Ohio State, picking up 74 catches for 976 yards, including 36 grabs for 477 yards last season. He had 12 touchdowns from scrimmage as a Buckeye, and another from a punt return, and showed he could be dangerous catching the ball, grabbing it out of the backfield, or on special teams.
