Florida State University (FSU) has achieved a significant milestone in the 2024 NFL Draft, with six players selected in the first 96 picks and four in the top 64. This marks a standout performance not seen since 2015, and it includes five of the first 43 defensive players drafted, representing 11.6% of all defensive selections. FSU's draft success this year is already the most for the Seminoles since 2018, potentially matching or surpassing the six players drafted that year. This strong showing underscores FSU's prominence in college football, reflecting their recent 13-1 season compared to the University of Florida's 5-7.
Since this tweet FSU has had 5 players drafted, with 5 left to get picked tomorrow vs UF’s 1.. The difference between 13-1 and 5-7 https://t.co/sYzbVcuTY5

So that’s 6 of the top 96 picks for FSU. Not bad. https://t.co/0gILDQNB1N
Florida State has now had 6 players drafted in the first 96 picks. And more than that, of the first 43 defensive players taken --- FIVE of them came from FSU. That's 11.6 percent of all defensive draft picks. Unreal.
FSU fans, rightly, can point out how strong the Noles' draft has been. But don't ignore the second number here. Not like the other CFP teams have been slouches in the draft https://t.co/wHHXmlat8u
We're barely into the third round and FSU's five players drafted this year are already the most for the Seminoles since 2018. Could tie or maybe even pass that 2018 number (6) by the end of the third round tonight.
Another way to crunch the numbers on #FSU's #NFLDraft class so far. Five picks in the top 66. Unless I missed one, that's only happened twice before: 2013 and 2015. https://t.co/iuVAeYzSij
5 NOLES in the @NFLDraft so far….. AMAZING! GO @Seminoles !!!
4 picks in the top 64 for the Noles
4 #Noles have gone in the first two rounds. First time since 2015 https://t.co/iuVAeYzSij
