A streak that was snapped this year for the Penn State football team was producing a first-round pick. Since the 2021 NFL draft, the team has successfully done just that. In 2021 Micah Parsons and Odafe Oweh were first-round picks, then in the 2022 NFL draft, Jahan Dotson was also selected in the first-round. Many experts expected Joey Porter Jr to be a first round selection; however, he ended up being the first pick of round two this past weekend.
As we look ahead to the 2023 college football season, the Penn State football team is loaded with talent. I believe they will have at least 3 first-round picks in the 2024 NFL draft, of course, this is dependent on these players staying healthy in this upcoming season.
Let’s review the players on the 2023 Penn State football roster that hold first-round potential for the 2024 NFL draft.
