NFL Draft early entrants -- tOSU 3, Pitt 3, PSU 1

Pitt has 3 - Whitehead, Henderson and an OL.

OSU only lost 3 as several decided to return.

Big surprise was all the returnees at Clemson, to include Wilkins.
Thanks for the info, I'll modify my post; offensive tackle Brian O'Neill is a significant loss for Pitt
 
Clemson had a few....Van Smith, McCloud and Taylor Hearn at least declared. That's just off the top of my head.

Ohio State lost 3 very good defensive players in Hubbard, Ward & Baker(?)....I think it was Baker

I was referencing the three Clemson DL who chose to return.
 
That Ohio St article was hilarious. I think they listed the ball boy choosing to return. Losing 3 early to the draft, Ohio St wins again! o_O

Meanwhile, projected to be drafted overall are:
23 Denzel Ward CB 2 Ohio State Jr 5-10 191
85 Billy Price OG 5 Ohio State Sr 6-4 312
90 Sam Hubbard DE 10 Ohio State Jr 6-5 265
100 Jamarco Jones OT 12 Ohio State Sr 6-5 310
117 Damon Webb SS 5 Ohio State Sr 5-11 195
170 Jerome Baker OLB 10 Ohio State Jr 6-1 225
172 Tyquan Lewis DE 18 Ohio State Sr 6-4 265

Which compares to PSU:
7 Saquon Barkley RB 1 Penn State Jr 5-11 223
96 Mike Gesicki TE 4 Penn State Sr 6-6 252
103 Marcus Allen FS 5 Penn State Sr 6-2 202
138 DaeSean Hamilton WR 19 Penn State Sr 6-1 205

not sure how many of our players would have found leaving with eligibility would have been a good idea:

Trace (he is a graduating senior with a year left) = should benefit by staying
Juwan Johnson - currently a junior with 2 years = will be alot better off waiting to finish his 4th year in 2018
Ryan Bates - like JJ a junior with 2 years = gains by getting another year.
Torrance Brown - graduating senior this year can come back healthy and get part way to a grad degree in 2018
Sharif Miller - ditto
Koa Farmer = graduating senior in 2018 but has another year available - will benefit for NFL
