I have been updating this plot for many years now to give a look how draft picks have changed over the years. I just updated again with the 2024 NFL draft information. The first plot shows all FBS conferences and the FBS independents. The second plot divides the total picks by the number of teams in the conference the preceding season (e.g. the 2023 conferences used for the 2024 draft). The year listed is the NFL draft year (also the year of that season’s BCS/CFP championship).
Keep in mind that the independents number is small so the average there is driven much more by changes in the denominator than the numerator.
