Ohio State Football: NFL Mock Draft No. 1, where Buckeyes will land
No. 50: Chicago Bears – K.J. Hill WR, Ohio State
The Chicago Bears are in desperate need of playmakers for Mitch Trubiskey. Enter K.J. Hill, Ohio State’s all time receptions leader. Hill had a tremendous week at the Senior Bowl and his stock should only continue to rise with the NFL Combine and Ohio State pro-day coming up.
No. 55: Atlanta Falcons – Malik Harrison LB, Ohio State
Malik Harrison had an excellent season for the Buckeyes in 2019 and should be a fit with the Falcons as it was announced that Vic Beasley would not be returning. Harrison is just a very solid player who is capable of doing a little bit of everything. He’s solid in pass coverage, a sure tackler, can run sideline to sideline and can stick his hand on the ground and rush the passer.
No. 88: New Orleans Saints – Damon Arnette CB, Ohio State
You can never have enough cover corners in the NFL and the Saints take a good one here in the third round. Damon Arnette had a fabulous season as he played through an arm injury all season long. Arnette is a solid tackler and has the speed and coverage abilities to be a steal for the Saints with pick No. 88.
No. 112: Cleveland Browns – Jonah Jackson OG, Ohio State
On paper this seems to be a perfect fit for the Cleveland Browns. Jonah Jackson is one of the premier pass blockers in this draft class and the Browns couldn’t block anybody last season. As a fourth round pick, Jackson has a chance to see playing time right away at right guard for the Browns.
No. 147: Cincinnati Bengals – Jordan Fuller S, Ohio State
The Bengals love selecting Ohio State football players and taking a chance on one of the Buckeyes best defenders in round five seems to make a ton of sense. Jordan Fuller had 62 tackles and two interceptions playing safety last season for Ohio State.
No. 177: San Francisco 49ers – Davon Hamilton DT, Ohio State
Another player who helped himself in Mobile for the Senior Bowl, Davon Hamilton teams up with former teammate Nick Bosa with the 49ers. The fifth round pick had six sacks and nine and a half tackles for loss last season at Ohio State.
