Projected salaries, bonuses for Ohio State players selected in 2024 NFL Draft
COLUMBUS — The 2024 NFL Draft ended on Saturday, and just four of the more than 250 players who heard their names called were from Ohio State.
The Buckeyes had one first-round selection, along with one from the second round, one from the fourth round and then a fifth-round selection. Those players are set to make significant money, and Lettermen Row has a breakdown of their projected rookie contracts according to Spotrac.com.
WR Marvin Harrison Jr.: The two-time unanimous All-American, Heisman Trophy finalist and Biletnikoff Award winner is projected to receive a four-year deal worth $35,376,397. The average salary for his deal is $8,844,099 per year, and his signing bonus is expected to be $22,548,289. That’s the benefit of going No. 4 overall — as Harrison Jr. was selected by the Atlanta Falcons.
DT Mike Hall: The 54th overall pick to the Cleveland Browns, former Buckeyes defensive tackle Mike Hall has a projected contract that will look like a four-year deal worth $6,911,833, an average annual value of $1,727,958. His signing bonus is projected to be around $1,846,788.
