Buckeyes’ Heyward goes in 1st round of NFL Draft
Cameron Heyward, who was a four-year starter for the Buckeyes, was selected as the 31st overall pick in Thursday’s NFL Draft.
The Pittsburgh Steelers chose the 6-foot-5 defensive end with their top pick.
According to the Bleacher Report, “Heyward is ecstatic to be a Pittsburgh Steelers. A life long fan of the Back and Gold, Heyward himself was born in Pittsburgh and his mother has always called Pittsburgh home. His father, best known as “Iron Head” Heyward played his college football at the University of Pittsburgh as well.”
Heyward joins a group of 68 other Buckeyes to be taken in the first round of the pro football draft since 1938.
In the past decade, 15 players from Ohio State have been first-round picks.
Other Buckeyes listed as NFL Draft prospects are: Justin Boren (OL), Bryant Browning (OL), Chimdi Chekwa (DB), Jermale Hines (DB), Ross Homan (LB), Brian Rolle (LB), Brandon Saine (RB), Dane Sanzenbacher (WR) and Devon Torrence (DB).
Who do you think will be the next Buckeye selected?
