Every year, the Ohio State pro day is one of the largest in all of college football. This is because the Buckeyes typically boasts one of the largest classes in the NFL draft year after year. 2023 is no different and the Pittsburgh Steelers have five representatives in Columbus with several top prospects on their radar.
Here are the top Ohio State prospects working out:
QB – C.J. Stroud
OT – Paris Johnson Jr.
OT – Dawand Jones
WR – Jaxon Smith-Njigba
EDGE – Zach Harrison
C – Luke Wypler
S – Ronnie Hickman
CB – Cameron Brown
Out of this list, the only name not on the Steelers radar should be Stroud. These are all draftable guys, all at positions of need for Pittsburgh and with such a diverse group, it requires plenty of eyes.
A couple of names to keep an eye on in particular are offensive tackle Dawand Jones and edge Zach Harrison. Pittsburgh hasn’t hidden its interest in Jones in the predraft process and his measurables are ridiculous. Harrison is an athletic freak as an edge player and Pittsburgh has been putting in the work scouting guys to add to that outside linebacker rotation.

More than 2-3 reps at pro-days is unusual. Speaks to respect NFL has for Ryan Day’s program. pic.twitter.com/e6rInHd0l8
