New mock draft projects Ohio State football player taken first overall

As the top team in the country, the Ohio State football program should have the best players on its roster. The Buckeyes are looking to win back-to-back national championships despite the fact that they lost 15 starters from a year ago, including eight on defense.

Despite that loss of production, the Ohio State Buckeyes continue to plow over opponents. They have the Heisman Trophy favorite as their starting quarterback. Several players on their roster look like they have a shot to be a first-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.

In a mock draft from Nick Baumgardner of The Athletic, he has three Buckeyes being taken in the first round.
