I have a lot of time and I’m sure I forgot people. There’s a lot of OTs but not many true interior lineman. Also a serious lack of non pass rushing linebackers and interior DL but that shouldn’t be surprising.
Tons of receivers and insane QB talent obviously

I think it’s fair to say Mahomes should be the starter.

Yeah for sure. The other guys that could/should be starting next year
Stafford
Murray
Mayfield
Tannehill
Maybe Stidham, Dalton, Foles?

Florida has the most depth and breadth of any state, and I don't think it's very close right now.
Texas and California are very good as well, but if I were constructing a 53 man roster, I'd take Florida without hesitation.
Just as a side note, looking at recent All Pro teams, the East Coast (the Virginia to Jersey corridor including the Philadelphia metro area) does very, very well. Sneaky good part of the country for producing elite players.

Don't MS and LA both produce more per capita than anywhere else?
As of 2018 on a per capita basis, it was FL, GA, SC, AL, and LA. MS was 7th

lacking QB
Dak Prescott Haughton currently.
Louisiana is loaded in the all time QBs list. Shreveport alone, off the top of my head, has 3 different QBs that started a Super Bowl. Bradshaw, Woodley, Humphries.

California has the most NFL HOFers and generally has the most NFL players in the league at any given time.
Penn is 2nd in HOFers and Ohio is 3rd...Texas is 4th.
Every person in these pictures is an active player and you manage to bring up Penn State HoFers

But to answer OP, it's definitely California because that's like another country nestled into the United States.
California has the most NFL HOFers and generally has the most NFL players in the league at any given time.
Also usually has the most NBA players and has most Basketball HOFers.
I think something crazy like a third of all American MLB players are from California. I believe >40 MVPs are from California
Most Olympians Summer and Winter every single year
Most X games medals
Most UFC champs
California produces the greatest athletes in the world per capita bar none

Yep, just don’t have the raw numbers those states have. But Louisiana produces so much talent. I really think when talking about which school has the most inherent advantage for the football team, which is to say regardless of coach what program is set up to have the most success, it’s probably between OSU and LSU. These two schools are in talent-rich hot beds and are the only P5 schools in the state. Of course every school has to deal with border states and other programs poaching recruits but there’s such a big advantage to being the only legit home school option to top talent.
