2010 NFL Draft Rankings for the ACC

The NFL Draft is a big deal for a football fan, be it college or professional. Here's a breakdown of the ACC and how much talent was picked up from our conference this past weekend.

Georgia Tech shot up quickly with Derrick Morgan, Demaryious Thomas, and Morgan Burnett all getting drafted in the first three rounds and then mellowed out. Clemson supplied the most NFL players for this draft with five players.

Here's a chart for both 2009 and 2010 draft results.

The best way to get recruits to sign up for your school is to convince them that your program will increase their NFL chances. So far, Clemson and Georgia Tech can use that tool the most.

Questions arise however. Many of the players drafted out of Georgia Tech and Clemson were recruits from former coaches. Will Dabo help the Tigers continue to produce NFL talent once his recruits start having quality playing time? The same can be asked about Georgia Tech and Paul Johnson and that question will be answered this year as we will finally see his players run in his system.

Also, check out Florida State. Four players drafted in two years is a rough statistic for a program of such historically legendary status.

H/T: The Daily Gopher for the idea.

Butch Davis

First we will do the standard “but those were Chan Gailey’s players” before I drop some interesting BD insight.

The kids Butch has sent to the league from UNC thus far have been Bunting recruits, next season will be the first mix of Bunting (Deunta Williams, Kendrick Burney) and Davis (Austin, Sturdivant, Quinn, Carter) recruits.

You cannot overstate the NFL’s importance when it comes to recruiting. Davis has a list of 1st rounder he’s recruited as his reasons for coming to Carolina. It works, he’s snagged plenty of kids that way and as you’ve seen in our recruiting uptick kids keep responding.
