Four B1G players appeared on Young’s list, led by Purdue defensive end George Karlaftis at No. 2. Ohio State wide receiver Chris Olave checked in at No. 4 while Michigan defensive end Aidan Hutchinson and Iowa offensive lineman Tyler Linderbaum were No. 7 and No. 8, respectively.

The SEC is the only other conference to have multiple players on the list, occupying 2 of the 10 spots. Oregon defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux is Young’s top prospect, which is in agreement with many other NFL Draft analysts.

These lists are sure to change over the course of the season. But B1G fans have to like seeing so many players from the leagues in these conversations.
