California team had three future NFL wideouts.

The 2020 NFL Draft begins Thursday — to the joy of sports fans everywhere.

Mock drafts are suggesting a big presence for wide receivers in the first round. Per Ryan Wilson of CBSSports.com, six wide receivers are expected to go in the first 32 picks.

Since 2010, 35 wide receivers have been drafted in the first round. Sammy Watkins (2014) and Amari Cooper (2015) were both selected at No. 4 overall, the highest any wide receiver has been taken over the past decade.

Of the 313 wideouts drafted since 2010, 45 played high school football in the state of Florida. Texas is four behind Florida at 41 and California at 39. Serra (Gardena, Calif.) has had four receivers drafted from 2013-2018: Robert Woods (2013), Marqise Lee (2014), Paul Richardson (2014) and Jordan Lasley (2018).  

Below is a map of where all wide receivers since 2010 played high school football and a list of every player, the year they were drafted, what pick they were chosen as well as the school they attended.
