Ohio State is set to hold its Pro Day Friday, and a total of 17 former Buckeyes are on the docket to show their skills.
Per an OSU press release, 69 NFL scouts and team personnel are scheduled to attend the Pro Day at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center to get a look at the former Buckeyes — 16 of which were part of last season’s 12-2 squad.
The one player who wasn’t on the team last year is Etienne Sabino, a linebacker who played for OSU from 2008-12. Sabino went undrafted in the 2013 NFL Draft, and last played professionally with the New York Giants where he signed April 27 as an unrestricted free agent.
According to the release, the NFL allows players to participate in pro days a year after leaving the school.
OSU’s Pro Day is likely the final chance former Buckeyes will get to make an impression on NFL teams before the 2014 NFL Draft begins May 8.
Below is list of the players scheduled to compete at Pro Day, although the events each will be participating in is unknown:
