Ohio State has been a major player in the NFL draft for the past four years, with five of its wideouts drafted in the first round. This is the highest level of wide receiver from one school over a four-year period since Alabama had five in 2020-23. The 2026 draft will add another in Carnell Tate, who is expected to be a top-10 pick and is arguably the WR1 in the class. In 2027, Jeremiah Smith is likely to become the first WR selected No. 1 overall since Keyshawn Johnson in 1996. This ranking includes the player's predraft report, but also interviews with NFL scouts, coaches, and general managers.
