I saw on Twitter today that Week 1 NFL rosters will include 9 Sun Devils. That is a really low number, I believe.
There are 32 teams and 53 spots on each team, which means there are just under 1700 NFL roster spots. We'd have to basically double the number of guys on rosters to get to 1% of NFL players being Sun Devils. I'm sure there are some injuries and I know there will be a bunch of guys on practice squads, but I was surprised how few spots Sun Devils earned.
