Not only did Ohio State have the most players drafted among all schools in the 2016 NFL Draft with 12, all of them were taken in the first four rounds -- a new record. The previous mark was also held by the Buckeyes, with nine picks through the first four rounds in both 2004 and 2006. They also had five players selected in top 20, which tied a record set by Miami in 2004.

There were 22 defensive players selected in the second round, which is the most in the Common Draft Era. The previous record was 21 set in 2009 and 2003. It was also the first time in the Common Draft Era that 11 of the first 13 picks in the second round were spent on defense.

Ohio State LB Darron Lee was the New York Jets' eighth consecutive defensive first-round pick. That ties the longest such streak in the Common Draft Era. The Dallas Cowboys did this from 1998 (Greg Ellis) to 2007 (Anthony Spencer).

The Tennessee Titans drafted Heisman winners in back-to-back seasons, taking QB Marcus Mariota last year and RB Derrick Henry this year. Only six times in NFL Draft history has a team selected a Heisman Trophy winner in consecutive seasons. The last: Detroit drafted RB Barry Sanders in 1989 and QB Andre Ware in 1990.

There were 15 quarterbacks selected in 2016 -- the most ever in a single draft. This broke the previous record of 14, which was established in 2005 and tied in 2014. Nine of the 15 quarterbacks were taken on Day 3.

Three wide receivers were selected in consecutive picks in the first round, the first time that has happened. Will Fuller went to the Texans with the No. 21 overall selection, Josh Doctson was then selected by the Redskins at No. 22, and the Vikings drafted Laquon Treadwell with the No. 23 overall pick.

The Cleveland Browns tied the 1997 Dolphins for the most picks in a single draft since 1994. Their 14 selections were the most among any team in the 2016 draft. The Browns also selected more players this year than in 2013 and 2014 combined (11).

German WR Moritz Boehringer became the first player drafted directly into the NFL from a European league. He did not start playing football until he was 17 years old after watching Adrian Peterson highlights on YouTube. Peterson and Boehringer will now be teammates on the Vikings.

As the No. 2 overall selection, Carson Wentz became the highest-drafted quarterback from a non-FBS school since FBS and FCS split prior to the 1978 season. He became only the fifth small-school QB drafted in the first round. The others: Joe Flacco (Delaware), Steve McNair (Alcorn State), Ken O'Brien (UC-Davis) and Phil Simms (Morehead State). Wentz is also the first QB to be drafted from North Dakota State in the Common Draft Era.

Alabama RB Derrick Henry was selected by the Tennessee Titans with the No. 45 overall pick. This is only the second time in NFL Draft history a former Heisman Trophy winning running back was taken outside of the first round. Henry is the lowest selected since Herschel Walker in 1985 (Round 5, Pick 114).

Keenan Reynolds became the seventh player from the Naval Academy drafted since 1967. He and Joey Cardona were drafted in back-to-back years after Navy failed to have any players drafted from 1996-2014. Its most famous draftee, of course, remains Roger Staubach, a 10th-round selection of the Cowboys in 1964.

Buffalo was the only NFL team to draw all of its draft choices from Power Five conference schools. The Bills took two from the SEC (Alabama LB Reggie Ragland, Arkansas RB Jonathan Williams), two from the Big Ten (Ohio State DT Adolphus Washington, Ohio State QB Cardale Jones) and one each from the ACC (Clemson DE Shaq Lawson), Pac-12 (USC CB Kevon Seymour) and Big 12 (TCU WR Kolby Listenbee).

When the Rams selected Jared Goff with the first overall pick, Cal moved into the lead for most quarterbacks taken in the first round since 1960 with six. The other five: Aaron Rodgers (2005), Kyle Boller (2003), Rich Campbell (1981), Steve Bartkowski (1975). Craig Morton (1965).

Cardale Jones became the 12th quarterback from Ohio State to get drafted. If he ever makes a Pro Bowl, he'll be the first one from the school to do so.

Despite having the fifth-best defense in the NFL last year, the Arizona Cardinals invested four of their six picks on defenders (DT Robert Nkemdiche, CB Brandon Williams, SS Marqui Christian, CB Harlan Miller), including three of their first four.

It's been 14 years since it took longer for a Southern Cal player to come off the board. Su'a Cravens was drafted No. 53 overall by the Washington Redskins; in 2002, CB Kris Richard went No. 85 overall to Seattle.
