Last year at this time, Ohio State became the undisputed football Mecca during a pro day that eventually featured five first-round draft picks and three second-round picks.

Cleveland Browns coach Hue Jackson missed the event due to being "under the weather." The Browns failed to send a single emissary and eventually traded down from the No. 2 overall pick to draft Baylor wide receiver Corey Coleman.

The Browns promptly went 1-15. This year, however, the Browns have apparently learned from their faults.

According to cleveland.com Browns beat reporter Mary Kay Cabot, Jackson will be in Columbus today as another wave of Buckeyes showcase their skills for NFL personnel:

The Browns' general manager Sashi Brown won't make the trip, though:

The Browns possess the No. 1 and No. 12 pick of the first round and two picks in the second round. They haven't drafted a Buckeye since wide receiver Brian Robiskie in 2009.

As for the full attendance, Ohio Stays says there will be 115 personnel representing all 32 NFL teams, including 9 head coaches and 6 general managers.
