Auburn Tigers

The Auburn Tigers are absolutely a storied program and have sent a ton of great players to the NFL, but have also had their share of big time busts.

Of course, when you say Auburn, the name Bo Jackson immediately leaps to mind. The number one overall pick in 1986 was a spectacular player and had an incredible career, despite it being shortened by injuries and the dual-sport time in MLB.

There probably hasn’t been a bigger bust out of Auburn than linebacker Aundray Bruce. Taken with the first overall pick by the Falcons in 1988, Bruce had what barely amounted to an NFL career at all.

Auburns biggest draft class came in 1989, when 10 Tigers were selected to the NFL, although none came in the first round that season.
