Here's a link to the entire article (paywalled), and the writer's snippets on each of the three Buckeyes:

1. New York Jets: Arvell Reese, edge/LB, Ohio State

If there’s a football player in this draft reminiscent of Micah Parsons, it’s pretty clearly Reese, the dynamic Ohio State junior. He can play in the box, off the edge or even in the slot in some situations — he has true do-it-all potential and could be a game-breaker in the NFL.

There’s zero pressure on the Jets to take a quarterback here, as they now own five first-round picks over the next two years.

5. Miami Dolphins: Caleb Downs, S, Ohio State

The Dolphins could be in the QB market, too, depending on the coaching situation (among other things). But they also need secondary help, and Downs might be the best overall football player in this class. He won’t just remind you of someone like Ed Reed — he’s more a blend of Reed and Detroit’s Brian Branch. There’s nothing Downs can’t do in a secondary.

10. Arizona Cardinals: Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio State

Jeremiah Smith is the most talented football player in college football, but Tate continues to make sure people aren’t forgetting about him. The big-bodied junior has had dominant stretches this season, flashing star potential of his own in the process. This would be an elite fit alongside Marvin Harrison Jr., Tate’s former teammate in Columbus.
