"Five of Clemson’s six drafted players were on the defensive side, a single-season high for the Tigers."

Hairston and Harper - Offense
Jenkins, Gilchrist, Bowers, Maxwell - Defense

There are only three 12-team leagues. ACC middle-of-pack.

For the 2011 draft, there were only three 12-team conferences (SEC, ACC, Big-12), so the ACC had a team-number (draftable candidate number) advantage over leagues like the Pac-10, Big-Ten, & Big East, and therefore it's not necesarily fair to tout the ACC's draft numbers without that qualifier. If we divide the draftees by the number of teams in the leage we get...

Avg. Draftees Per Team
SEC: 3.2
Pac-10: 3.1
ACC: 2.9
Big-10: 2.6
Big-12: 2.6


The ACC did really well in the 2nd round (12-of-32), but in the first round (where arguably the elite talent is) the SEC dominated with 10, followed by the Big-12 (8), Big Ten (6), ACC (3), Pac-10 (3), & Big East (1).

Prepare to get blasted

For objectivity

Somebody should blast my calculation. Big-12 = 2.4 (not 2.6)

Still not too bad for a "no talent" leage. Also elite talent is taken in the first round but often these players are just over-hyped see Jamarcus Russell, Tim Couch, Andre Ware, etc. They say teams are built in the later rounds. Also probably 80 % of pro-bowlers were not selected in the first round (not an actual statistic just a guess) maybe one of you numbers guys could find an actual stat.
