For our NFL draft contest, we’re asking you to predict which round each Buckeye will be selected in. Each correct pick will constitute one point. If multiple readers tie with the same number of points, the winner will be decided based on the following tiebreaker question: Which overall pick number will be Will Howard be selected with? The answer that comes closest to the actual pick number will win the tiebreaker and the gift card; in the event of a second tie, whoever submits their answer first between those tied will win the gift card.
Please submit your answers using the following format (sample answers based on each player’s average draft projection in our last NFL mock draft roundup):
First Round: Josh Simmons, Emeka Egbuka
Second Round: Donovan Jackson, TreVeyon Henderson, Tyleik Williams, JT Tuimoloau, Quinshon Judkins
Third Round: Jack Sawyer
Fourth Round: Lathan Ransom, Will Howard, Denzel Burke
Fifth Round: Ty Hamilton, Seth McLaughlin, Jordan Hancock
Sixth Round: Cody Simon
Seventh Round: None
Undrafted: Josh Fryar, Gee Scott Jr.
