- For the 14th time in the past 15 seasons, at least one player who attended high school outside of the United States was selected in the NFL Draft [WR Chase Claypool (British Columbia) and DL Neville Gallimore (Ontario)].
- Texas led all states in drafted players for the first time since 2016, when they had 32 players selected.
- Hawaii, the state with the most players were capita in 2020, had a player selected in the NFL Draft for the first time since 2016, when they had three players selected.
- Texas led all states with seven first-round selections. Florida followed with four players selected in Round 1.
