Here are the # of players just drafted in each of the Power 5 conferences : SEC : 99 ACC : 75 PAC 12 : 49 BIG 12 : 47 BIG 10 : 37 To reinforce other posts about slot value, college seniors having no leverage, etc.......A college senior that I help coach went in the 7th round and signed for 20K. Was agreed to before the pick was made.
This year for sure. 99 is an incredible number -- 7 per school on average. Last year the SEC and ACC tied with 75 players drafted apiece.
