One of the newer traditions for players attending the NFL draft is that each player gets to pick their own walk-up song for when they are introduced. The full list of songs for this year's 22 NFL draft attendees, including Ohio State's Denzel Ward, was released Thursday morning on NFL.com:

Ward went with a contemporary hip-hop song, which per usual, tends to be the popular choice among NFL draft prospects.
My personal favorites, though, come from the prospects who decided to throw it back: Josh Jackson's song choice gets my top grade, but Sam Darnold gets an honorable mention.
