I'm always a fan of taking players from the best and most competitive conference but I wonder what the numbers are on that. On the surface at least it seems like the "safe" route.
No data on “bust rate” but they rank third in college for “Pro-Bowlers produced”. At least, in 2015. From 2006-2015, the SEC had 11.7% of their draftees make a Pro Bowl. The two conferences to beat them out were the PAC-12 (11.96%) and Conference USA (13%). The Big 12 came in right under the SEC at 11.62%.
