Manning's would be on the list.

ETA: And the Ripkens. And the Pounceys

Eli Manning, Peyton Manning
Vernon Davis, Vontae Davis
Tiki Barber, Ronde Barber
Clay Matthews, Casey Matthews
Antonio Cromartie, Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (half brothers)
Champ Bailey, Boss Bailey
Josh Bullocks, Daniel Bullocks

I think that's it, and I'm not positive that all of them were drafted.

ETA: Can't believe I forgot about the Pouncey's.

Devin and Jason McCourty

Arthur and Chandler Jones (bonus points for their other brother being a frickin world champ in the UFC)

Gronkowski has two brothers that have played in the league but Idk if they were drafted or not

ETA MLB probably has a huge number seeing as they draft a billion guys every year

the 49ers drafted twin brothers in the late 90's. I think it was like one in the 5th and the other in the 7th. Can't remember their names.
