If the Ohio State Buckeyes needed another proof point for WRU in the NFL era, Jaxon Smith-Njigba just handed them one. In early February, he didn’t merely become another former Buckeye receiver thriving on Sundays. He became the headline, the league’s Offensive Player of the Year.

After putting together my preseason All-American projection for Ohio State, the most interesting debate point wasn’t Jeremiah Smith (he’s the easiest lock on the roster). It was Julian Sayin, because quarterback is the one position where “elite” still doesn’t guarantee first-team preseason status. Sayin already owns the exact resume voters lean on in August. He […]
