Here's a look back at each Ohio State QB who was drafted.
Don Scott, 1941
When he was drafted: 1st round, No. 9 pick by the Chicago Bears
Scott was an All-American in 1940 before being drafted by the Bears.
Instead of playing in the NFL, however, he chose to serve in the military during World War II. He was killed in a plane crash in October of 1943.
Johnny Borton, 1955
When he was drafted: 13th round, pick No. 157 by the Cleveland Browns
NFL career stats: 3-6 (50 percent), 22 yards, 0 touchdowns, 1 INT
Borton moved north to join the Browns after being a co-captain on the 1954 national championship team. Borton's only season came in 1957 and he threw just six NFL passes for calling it a career after the year.
In his college career, Borton threw for 2,129 yards, 19 TDs and 18 interceptions.
Frank Kremblas, 1959
When he was drafted: 23rd round, pick No. 275 by the New York Giants
NFL career stats: Did not play.
Kremblas was part of Ohio State's 1957 national championship team. But he never played a down in the NFL.
His career numbers at Ohio State were not very high because of how often Woody Hayes ran the football. Kremblas threw just 95 times in his career, completing 36 for 618 yards, three TDs and four interceptions. As a runner, he carried it 145 times for 466 yards and eight TDs.
Art Schlichter, 1982
When he was drafted: 1st round, pick No. 4 by the Baltimore Colts
NFL career stats: 91-202 (45.0 percent), 1,006 yards, 3 TDs, 11 INTs
Schlichter was the first Ohio State quarterback in 23 years to be taken by an NFL team. To this day, he is OSU's last first-round quarterback.
Despite a good career in college, Schlichter is regarded as one of the biggest draft busts in history. He was suspended for the 1983 season due to gambling, which ultimately thrust him out of the NFL after the Colts cut him after 1985.
In 2012, Schlichter was sentenced to 11 years in prison for fraud.
Tom Tupa, 1988
When he was drafted: 3rd round, pick No. 68 by the Phoenix Cardinals
NFL career stats: 259-504 (51.4 percent), 3,430 yards, 12 TDs, 25 interceptions
Tupa was a rare player because of his ability to throw the ball well in college as well as punt. That made him a third-round pick in 1988.
But he was not a good pro quarterback, throwing more than twice as many interceptions as he did touchdowns. After 1992, he became a full-time punter and was an All-Pro in 1999.
He averaged 43.4 yards per punt in his career and only had two blocked.
Kent Graham, 1992
When he was drafted: 8th round, pick No. 211 by the New York Giants
NFL career stats: 694-1,339 (51.8 percent), 7,801 yards, 39 TDs, 33 interceptions
While he was not picked the highest among the previous Ohio State quarterbacks, Graham was the first to have a sustained career in the NFL.
Graham started 38 games in the NFL, 19 with the Giants. His best stretch came in 1998-99, when he was 10-5 as a starter, throwing for nearly 3,000 yards, 16 TDs and 14 interceptions.
He played for four NFL teams, but never played after getting into three games for the Redskins after 2001.
Despite having a negative TD-INT ratio in college -- eight TDs to 14 INTs at Notre Dame and Ohio State -- he threw for 39 TDs and 33 interceptions in a 10-year NFL career.
Bobby Hoying, 1996
When he was drafted: 3rd round, pick No. 85 by the Philadelphia Eagles
NFL career stats: 244-456 (53.5 percent), 2,544 yards, 11 TDs, 15 interceptions
Hoying is second in Ohio State history in career touchdown passes (58) and has the third-best passing season in school history. In 1995, he threw for 3,269 yards and 29 TDs.
But unlike Graham who was not very good in college but played better in the pros, Hoying's career was the opposite.
After throwing 11 TDs to six interceptions in 1997, he failed to throw a single TD in 1998. He had nine interceptions that season and went 1-6 as a starter. He was 3-9-1 as a starting quarterback, and never had another NFL start after 1998.
He spent his final two seasons in Oakland, where he attempted just seven
passes and completed two for 10 yards.
Craig Krenzel, 2004
When he was drafted: 5th round, pick No. 148 by the Chicago Bears
NFL career stats: 59-127 (46.5 percent), 718 yards, 3 TDs, 6 interceptions
Krenzel was the quarterback for Ohio State's 2002 championship and upset win vs. Miami in the Fiesta Bowl. He had two solid seasons to round out his Ohio State career. Those earned him an NFL shot with the Chicago Bears.
Krenzel started five games in Chicago, winning three despite throwing twice as many interceptions as touchdowns. The Bears cut him after the 2004 season, and he never played in the NFL again.
roy Smith, 2007
When he was drafted: 5th round, pick No. 174 by the Baltimore Ravens
NFL career stats: 121-234 (51.7 percent), 1,734 yards, 8 TDs, 5 interceptions
Smith became the sixth Ohio State player to win the Heisman Trophy in 2006, throwing for 2,542 yards, 30 TDs and six interceptions to carry the Buckeyes to the 2007 BCS National Championship Game.
The Ravens gave him a chance in 2007, and he started two games as a rookie, going 1-1.
He didn't get another start until 2010 with the 49ers. He went 3-3 there, throwing for 1,176 yards, five TDs and four interceptions. He never played an NFL snap after that.
Smith played two seasons with the Montreal Alouettes in the CFL before his pro career ended after 2014.
Terrelle Pryor, 2011
When he was drafted: First pick in the third round of supplemental draft by the Oakland Raiders
NFL career stats: 175-311 (56.3 percent), 1,993 yards, 9 TDs, 12 interceptions
Pryor's commitment to Ohio State in 2008 was memorable because of the hype surrounding him. He eventually led the team to two BCS bowl games, and threw for 57 TDs in three seasons.
But after a suspension as a result of a scandal in which players traded memorabilia for tattoos, Pryor left school and entered the supplemental draft. The Raiders picked him up and he started 10 NFL games, going 3-7 before converting to receiver.
He had a 1,000-yard season with the Browns in 2016, but signed with the Redskins after the season and has not had the same success. Injuries have limited him to just 17 games in 2017 and 2018 combined.
Braxton Miller, 2016
When he was drafted: 3rd round, pick No. 85 by the Houston Texans (as a receiver)
NFL career stats: 34 receptions, 261 yards (7.7 avg.), 2 TDs
Miller falls into this category because he played three years as a quarterback. But after suffering a shoulder injury prior to the 2014 season, Miller moved to receiver for his final year in 2015. His quarterbacking career was over, but not before he threw for 5,295 yards, 52 TDs and 17 interceptions.
He found nowhere near the success in the pros that he had in college. He struggled with injuries in Houston, playing in just 21 games in two seasons.
The Texans cut him prior to the 2018 season, and he spent the rest of the season on the Eagles' practice squad.
Cardale Jones, 2016
When he was drafted: 4th round, pick No. 139 by the Buffalo Bills
NFL career stats: 6-11 (54.5 percent), 96 yards, 0 TDs, 1 interception
Jones will always be remembered for stepping in for the injured J.T. Barrett and quarterbacking a very talented 2014 Ohio State team to a national championship.
He won the starting job out of fall camp in 2015 but was inconsistent and didn't recapture the magic of the playoff run.
The Bills took a chance on him in 2016, but he only played one game for Buffalo before being dealt to the Chargers in the summer of 2017.
He lost the backup quarterback job and was cut in 2018, but signed with the Chargers' practice squad.
Don Scott, 1941
When he was drafted: 1st round, No. 9 pick by the Chicago Bears
Scott was an All-American in 1940 before being drafted by the Bears.
