Per capita meaning still less than everyone else. And is it mostly MS talent that go to other schools and out of state that go to the NFL?

Kansas is pretty weak. New Mexico comes to mind, and a surprise pick.....WA. They always have a few really good players, but no depth. Historically, half of UDub and Wazzou's rosters are from out of state

Tennessee is the worst state for HS football in the SEC.
