Since the first NFL Draft in 1936, 402 Oklahoma football players have been selected, including 47 in the first round and five No. 1 overall picks.

The 2022 NFL Draft will take place April 28-30 in Las Vegas Nevada. The three-day spectacular is where NFL teams will try to position themselves to improve their team while young men’s dreams come true.

Last offseason it appeared Oklahoma could be poised to threaten LSU’s 2019 draft record of 14 selections, but after a year that ended well below preseason expectations and with a few key injuries, the Sooners certainly will not be threatening that record in 2022.

Oklahoma, however, should have several selections that will put them towards the top of the draft. OU sent the second highest number of players with 11 to the NFL combine, and several of those players really improved their draft stock.  The following guide will be your source for insight on each of the 11 Sooners who went to the NFL combine, and the ranges you can expect them to go in the draft.
