We’re just one day away from the 2020 NFL Draft. For so many college football stars, the dream of pursuing a career at the professional level will become a reality.

On Wednesday, ESPN NFL Draft expert Mel Kiper Jr. released his final Top 300 players available in this year’s class. His rankings are based purely on talent and expectations in the NFL, not on where he expects each individual player to be drafted.

In Kiper’s Top 300 are 48 former B1G stars. Ohio State leads the way with 11 players included, led by Chase Young at No. 1 and Jeff Okudah at No. 3. Michigan was next in line with 10 players mentioned. Iowa and Wisconsin each had five players.

Below is where the 48 B1G players rank, according to Kiper. You can see his complete Top 300 here.
