The 2023 NFL Draft is now complete with the end of Round 7. All that remains is to see these players play in the NFL now and see if the franchises were justified in spending draft capital on them. That is a question for the future.
But for now, we can definitely figure out which college programs did well and which did not. These lists provide a valuable overview of which schools are currently the strongest in the country and where high school students should look towards going.
Here is a list of schools from where most players were cumulatively drafted in the 2023 NFL Draft.

Both the defensive linemen went in consecutive picks, 28 and 29, to the Cincinnati Bengals and New Orleans Saints, respectively. Their lowest pick was Davis Allen, a tight end who went to the Los Angeles Rams in the fifth round.
The picks for Florida were much more evenly distributed, with quarterback Anthony Richardson being the only one to go in the first round with the fourth overall pick to the Indianapolis Colts. Their last pick was Amari Burney in the sixth round, with the linebacker going to the Las Vegas Raiders.
LSU did not have a single pick in the first round, with its only pick in the top three rounds coming in the second round with edge B.J. Ojulari to the Arizona Cardinals. They had a couple of picks in the sixth round, with Jarrick Bernard-Convers rounding things off as the cornerback went to the New York Jets.
Ohio State had three picks in the first round with C.J. Stroud going second overall to become the new quarterback of the Houston Texans. Paris Johnson and Jaxon Smith-Njigba joined him in the first round. Their last pick was in the sixth round with Pick 190 Luke Wypler going to the Cleveland Browns.
Penn State had three picks in the second round, beginning with the first pick on the day with cornerback Joey Porter Jr. going to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Wide receiver Parker Washington was the last pick from the school in the sixth round and went to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Pittsburgh saw defensive tackle Calijah Kancey go 19th overall in the first round to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They joined the other schools mentioned before with a seventh-round pick as safety Brandon Hill went to the Houston Texans.
#4 - TCU (8 picks)
With eight picks of their own, TCU stands proudly in fourth place. The National Championship finalists showed why they did so well last season.
They had a solitary pick in the first round, with wide receiver Quentin Johnson selected by the Los Angeles Chargers with the 21st pick of the 2023 NFL Draft. Except for round 5, they had at least one pick in every round. Quarterback Max Duggan was selected in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL Draft to join the same team that his teammate had gone in the first round.
#3 - Michigan (9 picks)
Michigan is third on this list with 9 picks. However, they had a single pick in the first round, with more than half their picks coming on the last day. Interestingly, the Dallas Cowboys, the Cincinnati Bengals, the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers took two each from Michigan, making up the bulk of the picks. The Miami Dolphins took another one.
Mazi Smith went 26th overall in the 2023 NFL Draft to the Dallas Cowboys. The last pick from Michigan was Ronnie Bell, with the wide receiver going to the San Francisco 49ers with the 253rd pick.
#T1 - Georgia (10 picks)
Tied first with nine picks as well are National Champions Georgia. The Philadelphia Eagles were particularly enamored, taking three players in the top four rounds of the 2023 NFL Draft.
Jalen Carter went ninth overall, followed by Broderick Jones and Nolan Smith in the first round. Their final pick was 237th overall when running back Kenny McIntosh went to the Seattle Seahawks.
#T1 - Alabama (10 picks)
Atop the list, joining Georgia, are the kings of the NFL Draft. Alabama has had the most selections in five of the last seven drafts, including a record 12 in 2021. The 2023 NFL Draft did not pan out any differently, with Bryce Young starting off proceedings, going first overall to the Carolina Panthers.
Will Anderson Jr. and Jahmyr Gibbs joined him in the first round, going to the Houston Texans and the Detroit Lions. Their last pick in the 2023 NFL draft was 224th overall when safety DeMarcco Hellams was selected by the Atlanta Falcons.
So, while there was no clear winner in terms of schools, with Alabama and Georgia tying at the top, Nick Saban's coaching tree and the SEC all emerged as undisputed winners.
