The Silver Bullets Podcast is back for its April offseason episode, but the sad thing is that it’s our last episode.
We’ve enjoyed talking about Ohio State football over the years and putting our own unique spin on it by breaking down the games, celebrating great performances, analyzing the schedule, predicting the Big Ten finals and the Ohio State game each week, and all the other things we’ve done. However, all the good things…

We begin our final episode with a review of Ohio State’s 2026 spring game, where Chris Henry Jr. proved he’s a man among boys. We discussed the format, the big plays, the scoring, some of the key players who were missing and who stood out at the team’s glorious annual practice.
It’s always interesting to see where young guys are in their development, and we think Henry will get on the field early, especially when the Buckeyes get into the red zone. He’s too imposing a target with his height, jumping ability and catch radius for Arthur Smith and Ryan Day not to use him in those situations.
It was a rainy day, which may have contributed to some sloppiness, but it was nice to see a kicker make two of his three field goals from 40+ yards in those conditions, even though it wasn’t an actual game.
After our discussion of the spring game, we turn our attention to the 2026 NFL Draft. We go over each Buckeye landing spot in the draft, discuss how those teams fit with the guys who drafted them, and talk about some of the records Ohio State set or tied along the way by having 11 guys selected (four in the first round and seven in the first two rounds) just one year after seeing 14 Buckeyes chosen by clubs in the NFL.

It’s been a truly impressive era in Ohio State football for many reasons, but the talent funneled through Columbus into the Sunday league has been insane.
And this is a summary of our program. Many thanks to everyone who listened to us over the years, and many thanks to the leadership team here at Land-Grant Holy Land for providing us with a home for the last two of those years.
We have enjoyed being here and sharing with you our thoughts on Ohio State football, and while we will certainly miss doing so, especially this fall when the games are played, it is time for us to say goodbye.
If you would like to contact us now or in the future, please feel free to email us. While we can’t respond to you on the program, since there isn’t one anymore, we can respond to you.

As always, thanks for listening!
0:20 – The 2026 edition of OSU’s annual spring game had its heroes, as always, and we tried to highlight the players who stood out and discuss how the defense always has an advantage in this annual fight.
31:27- In the NFL Draft, 11 Buckeyes found new football homes, and some of those top picks will see each other twice each season in the Sunday league because they were drafted in the same division.
