Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson to attend NFL draft in person

It’s mid-April and that means the 2022 NFL draft is extremely close. In fact, it’ll take place from April 28-30 in Las Vegas and it’s sure to draw another excited and extremely interested crowd.

It’s always interesting to see which players decide to attend the draft in person, and we’ve finally gotten the list of those that’ll be on hand this year, and there are two Ohio State players that are on the list that might walk across the stage on day one.

And yeah, it’s the two players you’d probably expect. Both OSU receivers Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson are among 21 players that will be attending the draft in person, waiting to get the call of a lifetime.

By now, you know that both Buckeye receivers are widely projected to go in the first round, so it makes sense that they would get the opportunity to have a front-row seat to all the action.
