There’s has been only 2 drafts that Aflac players have been eligible for. 2006 will be the third draft. Many players are drafted, but perhaps the most astounding is the number of early selections.

The percentages, so far, show that 1 of every 4 Aflac All Americans have become a first round draft pick
