This Week in Twitter is a look at some of the week's best and most entertaining tweets from Buckeyeland and beyond.
Ohio State's pro day has come and gone. Of course, C.J. Stroud was the headliner nationally of the day, with the OSU quarterback a strong candidate to go No. 1 overall in next month's NFL Draft. As such, 14 members of the Carolina Panthers organization attended OSU's pro day, including head coach Frank Reich.

Reich and Stroud talked several times throughout the day, and the Panthers took Stroud out to dinner the night before.

Stroud said being the No. 1 overall pick would be a dream come true for him, but if he listens to his younger self, he might want to fall to pick No. 5 if you check the date of this tweet.

Nonetheless, getting to meet with the entire Seattle Seahawks contingent at OSU pro day must have been a cool moment for Stroud.

The hype was in full force for Stroud after his workout, most notably from his own head coach.

If you're 6-foot-6, 310 pounds, you're supposed to be naturally a little on the slower side, right? Well, don't tell Paris Johnson that.

Speaking of Johnson, he may have helped himself the most in terms of draft stock according to national NFL reporter Albert Breer.
Lot of hype around CJ Stroud, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Marvin Harrison yesterday at Ohio State. I actually heard the guy who helped himself most, in the eyes of scouts, was probably LT Paris Johnson Jr.

Has elite traits and is a true left tackle. Still young, but HIGH ceiling.
Another Buckeye that caught the eyes of NFL scouts Wednesday was defensive end Zach Harrison.
NFL coaches that watched Zach Harrison and other Ohio State defensive linemen at OSU's pro day Wednesday include:

He's not even eligible for this year's NFL Draft, but arguably the most impressive performer at OSU's pro day was Marvin Harrison Jr., according to several NFL scouts.

As you'd expect, there was lots of NFL interest in OSU at pro day, with each NFL organization being represented in some fashion.
ELITE!!! https://t.co/K9ksmyVyNw

Speaking of Buckeyes in the NFL, Justin Fields took a big step in his second season with the Chicago Bears.
