Not only did Henderson (38th overall to the Patriots) and Judkins (36th overall to the Browns) become the highest-drafted Ohio State running back duo in the modern era, they accomplished this feat while winning a national championship together.

The first round of the 2025 NFL Draft was dominated by power conference schools, as the SEC and Big Ten were ubiquitous during Thursday night's action with 26 of the first 32 picks coming from the two most powerful conferences in the sport.

National champion Ohio State sent 14 players to the NFL this year, including seven players drafted in the first three rounds.
