Ohio State Football: Best landing spots for top Buckeyes in NFL draft
No. 4: Damon Arnette, CB: New Orleans Saints
The Saints are a few defensive pieces away from getting back to the Super Bowl and the love selecting Ohio State football players. Damon Arnette can step right into that secondary and lock down the corner spot opposite for former Buckeye great Marshon Lattimore.
No. 3: JK Dobbins, RB: Seattle Seahawks
Just like the Saints, the Seahawks are only a few pieces away from getting back to Super Bowl contention and adding a playmaker on offense should be at the top of its list. Enter JK Dobbins who could be Russel Wilson’s work horse for this Seattle offense.
No. 2: Jeff Okudah, CB: Detroit Lions
This spot makes too much sense as Jeff Okudah is a top-level talent and the Lions just traded away their best cover corner in Darius Slay. The Lions can re-tool its defense centered around Okudah’s lock down coverage abilities as he is ready for the challenge next season.
No. 1: Chase Young, DE: Washington Redskins
The Redskins would get a steal at No. 2 overall as Chase Young is the best player in this draft class and possibly the best prospect to come out of the college ranks in quit some time. Washington would build its core around two former Buckeyes in QB Dwayne Haskins on offense and Chase Young on defense.
