With eight more draft picks, Kirby Smart now has produced 63 draft picks over his first eight seasons as Georgia’s head coach. Of those selections, 17 have been first-rounders. For comparison, Georgia has lost just 16 games in that same span. Bowers, for example, went 42-2 over his college career.
The eight NFL draft selections placed Georgia in a tie for sixth with Oregon and Penn State. Michigan led the way this year, as 13 Wolverines were drafted. Texas had 11, while Florida State, Washington and Alabama all had 10.
Over the previous four NFL drafts, Georgia has had 42 players selected. And with players such as Carson Beck, Mykel Williams, Malaki Starks and Tate Ratledge all draft-eligible next year, expect the Bulldogs to once again be one of the better-represented teams in the 2025 NFL Draft.
The Bulldogs open the 2024 season against Clemson on Aug. 31.
