The P5 numbers include the supplemented roster transfers that go on to get drafted. This existed before the portal.
Only 61% of 5-star players survive to the NFL. Of those who do get drafted, they usually get drafted high.
Nearly 40% of 5-star athletes get buried in the talent graveyards.

I find it ironic and hypocritical to hear the UMN head coach complaining about NIL and the portal. Yes he may lose a great talent but look at his roster and see how many transfers he's poached from smaller schools. We jump on Sunbelt Billy for taking two talented guys from us but Maction PJ is still raiding Western Michigan in his 7th year. Dude is supposed to be a great recruiter and motivator. Really he has no legs to stand on here
Let them steal our players, the player that went to Alabama that is riding that bench I take that dude !!
It works both ways
Do y’all realize how many athletes are looked over?
Oh I got offered a scholarship from Alabama, and ride the bench for 4 years!
It works both ways
If I was a coach why wouldn’t you do it ?
“Over that period, five-star recruits make up only .7% of the overall recruiting cycle. Yet, 117 five-star recruits have been selected and the draft rate over the past five years is 63%.
Since the 2017 NFL draft, 468 four-star recruits have been picked or 36.2% of the total — even though they make up only 2.8% of the number of recruits. The draft rate of four-star recruits over the past five years is 22.1%.
It would make sense that more three-star recruits have been selected over the years…since they make up a larger part of overall recruiting classes each cycle. Since 2017, there have been 9,728 three-star recruits and 517 of them have been drafted. Overall, the data from the past five years reveals that 40% of the players drafted have been three-star recruits coming out of high school. But with the much larger number of three-star recruits in each cycle, the draft rate is only 5.3%.”
Its not the number of those that get in the NFL, its the failure rate of those who don't make it out of college.
