NFL Draft: FCS First-Round Picks Since 1978

NDSU QB Carson Wentz was selected with the No. 2 pick in the 2016 NFL Draft by Philadelphia. (Ryan Perreault/NDSU Athletics)

Curious about how many players from FCS schools have been drafted in past years? Want to know who went in the first round, or who was the first one taken off the board? Check it all out below.

When the NFL went from 12 rounds to seven rounds in 1993, it changed the complexion of what you see below, so we started with that first year instead of going back to the beginning of I-AA/FCS in 1978.

Here are the number of players based on FCS programs at the time drafted since 1993. — broken down by 1st round, Day Two (2nd and 3rd rounds) and total picks in all seven rounds.
