How many Clemson football players were picked in 2024 NFL draft? See every selection

Posted by author April 25, 2024 Football

CLEMSON — Clemson football will add to its list of draft picks during the 2024 NFL Draft in Detroit.

The Tigers have 10 players eligible to be picked by NFL teams, and six of them were invited to the NFL combine: running back Will Shipley, defensive end Xavier Thomas, linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr., cornerback Nate Wiggins and defensive tackles Tyler Davis and Ruke Orhorhoro.

This year’s draft class would rank behind last year’s group that featured six players drafted, including defensive linemen Myles Murphy and Bryan Bresee in the first round. In 2022, only defensive back Andrew Booth and receiver Baylon Spector were selected.

Where will they go? And will any other former Clemson players have their names called or land with NFL teams as undrafted free agents?

Follow along with the Clemson 2024 NFL Draft tracker.

Here’s a list of potential undrafted free agents who could sign with NFL teams:

CB Sheridan Jones

Jones recorded 50 tackles (3.5 for loss), two pass deflections and one interception as a starter the past two seasons. He did not receive a combine invitation but could be a potential late-round flier or UDFA pickup.
