Where Former Pitt Panthers Ended Up in the NFL

If there’s been a trend in recent off-season’s, it’s been how Pitt has been able to produce multiple drafts in each of the last few seasons.

Pitt had three players selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, which was tied for the third most in the ACC this year, and it came off a year in which the Panthers won just three games.

Pitt produced six draft picks in 2021, two in 2022, six in 2023 and three more in 2023. That’s coming off of seasons in which the Panthers have had at least one draft pick since 2014 — the same season in which Aaron Donald went 13th overall in the first round.

Pitt may have only produced three draft picks this time around, but there are a handful of undrafted free agent signings and a handful more minicamp invites. And this isn’t the end of the process either.
