but I doubt it's that big a deal to a recruit. Players know that they can be seen at BYU - more than at almost any school in the country. A player from Buffalo was drafted today. Does that mean Buffalo is a better team than BYU?

As I said, draft picks are nice but I only care how good BYU is, not how they draft. A player who comes to BYU is probably not looking at players in the NFL as a deciding factor.

Besides, after next year there is a good chance that it's 5 players in 6 years.
