The Dark Duck Draft of 2017

Recommended Posts

The 2017 NFL Draft was a dark time in the history of Oregon football, as the Ducks had no players drafted. Mr. FishDuck took a break from his fun at online betting app Bangladesh to recall that ugly NFL Draft for Oregon. Zero. Nada. Zilch. 2017 was a crossroads for the program. The Ducks were coming off their worst season ...

No Ducks drafted, Willie (run Herbert up the gut) Taggart, and getting destroyed by the Huskies. Not a banner year for Oregon football.

Measuring stick time. OBD have definitely left 2017 behind where Draft Day is concerned. But there is only one Duck expected to go in the 1st round, maybe. Osu2, Georgia, even the Alabama that had PAWL crying, will fill the 1st & 2nd rounds. Oregon still has a way to go.

We all know that our current staff has recruited talent at an unprecedented level. In the short time they have been in Eugene they already have players that are on NFL rosters that they recruited via the transfer portal. 
 

The young guns they recruited in the first year are just now eligible for the NFL draft. If you take into account redshirt players, some of the first year high school talent recruited by DL’s staff, still have a couple year’s of eligibility. 
 

I would expect NFL teams to acquire quite a few players on the current roster, or committed for 2026.
