Ivy League Football Players Drafted in the NFL 1967-2008 by School with Year, Round, NFL Team
Calvin Hill, One of the Best Ivy League Football Players to Play in the NFL
The NFL does not draft many Ivy League Football Players, in fact last year there were none. Yale has had the most players drafted, 22, during this period. There have been only 2 Ivy League players drafted in the first round since 1967: Calvin Hill of Yale in 1969 who in my opinion was the best pro football player from the Ivy League and Marty Domres of Columbia also in 1969. Here is a list of Ivy League Players drafted in the NFL from 1967 onwards, by individual Ivy League School listed by year, Round, Overall # in Draft, Player, and Team for any of the curious.
