FSU football: 3 huge ways 2024 NFL Draft positively impacts Nole program

Player Development

If you want to get developed, there's no better place to go than FSU football. These guys who got their name called have gone out of their way to praise the staff for what they helped them achieve.

Half of the players drafted were not inside the composite top 300 players in their recruiting class when they came out of high school. Johnny Wilson entered the transfer portal and nobody wanted to give him a shot except FSU. Trey Benson entered the transfer portal after a horrific knee injury and FSU was one of a handful of programs interested. Renardo Green signed with FSU out of high school, battled injuries, and position changes before becoming an All-ACC player. Braden Fiske went from a guy that was likely a UDFA or late round draft pick before coming to FSU, to a second round draft pick. These are all personal testimonies the coaching staff can point to when it comes to player development.
