BYU had the 2nd most players in the NFL of anyone in the west behind only USC. We had missions and honor code back then as well.

Returned missionaries who get drafted are few and far between

But they are really old and age is a huge advantage

5 drafted for BYU and 4 drafted for Utah since KW and BM took over

So on average 1 every other year from BYU and 0 since 2010? My point stands

TrueAndBlue

0 from byu since 2010 but plenty from other schools

Plenty? I guess we have a different definition of plenty.

At least 6 since BYU's last

"BYU has something like 3x the number of RMs"

They do have significantly more, just not draftees

I just looked at your list, I don't think it is that accurate

It looks like you updated it

Dallas certainly did im not sure if Matt ever made a practice squad

concolor couguar

5/1/15 11:11pm

He did, one with the Eagles and then another with the Chiefs

its pretty obvious isnt it?

I hate myself for giving a Ute a thumbs up

He's right though. BYU's last 2 high drafted players were not RMs.

Kind of right? It's the reason

True

Solomon Levi

Most were still non-RMs, other than O-Linemen.

Much higher percentage of RMs on Bronco's teams. See Utesplease's post.

Utesplease

5/1/15 9:50pm

Right before. Wanna say '02 or '03

It's a different world today than the 1980s

Incorrect

Walter Bellhaven

5/1/15 10:39pm

That makes no sense. Wapiti and utesplease are right.

Yes, but that was counting beer pong and target practice

Because BYU football is dying, that's why.

Yep. It is. No smiley face.

Because more money and more national appeal/exposure

Missions are an issue. Don't want older players
