The 2020 NFL Draft concluded last night and we had eleven Nigerians drafted. There will probably be more guys that get signed as undrafted free agents, but we wanted to highlighted guys that were blessed to get call during the three day virtual NFL Draft.

I believe that the number of Nigerian draftees will continue to increase over the years. There are tons of Nigerians exceling in the game of football throughout the states and this will just be more motivation to keep pushing to reach that NFL goal.

Check out the full list of draftees below:

Name	Team	Draft Pick	Position	University
Jeff Okudah	Detroit Lions	Rd 1, Pick 3	CB	Ohio State
Noah Igbinoghene	Miami Dolphins	Rd 1, Pick 30	CB	Auburn
Josh Uche	New England Patriots	Rd 2, Pick 60	DE	Michigan
Julian Okwara	Detroit Lions	Rd 3, Pick 67	OLB	Notre Dame
Justin Madubuike	Baltimore Ravens	Rd 3, Pick 71	DT	Texas A&M
Micahel Ojemudia	Denver Broncos	Rd 3, Pick 77	CB	Iowa
Albert Okwuegbunam	Denver Broncos	Rd 4, Pick 118	TE	Missouri
Hakeem Adeniji	Cincinnati Bengals	Rd 6, Pick 180	OT	Kansas

Prince Tega Wanogho	Philadelphia Eagles	Rd 6, Pick 210	OT	Auburn
