For the better part of eight decades, Oklahoma football has been a prime breeding ground for NFL draft picks.

That’s a natural byproduct of being one of the winningest college programs of all-time. The Sooners had five players taken in this year’s NFL Draft, conducted a few weeks ago, and have had no fewer than four players selected in each of the last 14 NFL Drafts.
