The parade of Ohio State players coming off the board in the 2025 NFL draft continues as we continue through Day 2 of the NFL draft. After four Buckeyes went in the first round, we’ve now seen three more go in the second round with defensive end J.T. Tuimoloau going off the board to the Indianapolis Colts with the No. 45 pick.
Tuimoloau was one of the top prospects in the class of 2021 and played from the time he got on campus all the way through his senior season. He’s not the quickest off the edge, but he has a ton of power and a motor that just won’t quit. There were times last season when he took over as a game wrecker and showed the type of impact he can make.
It may take him some time to reach his full potential in the NFL, but he’s got the work ethic, drive, and build to be a solid Pro Bowl-type player once he figures it all out. He’ll get a shot to shin with the Colts and we like his chances of carving out a very productive and long pro career.
The second evening of the NFL draft is almost over, but there’s still one more day to go on Saturday, and we’ll continue to bring you any Ohio State news that happens out in Green Bay.
