Forfeited picks

Two selections in the 2013 draft were forfeited:

Supplemental draft

The supplemental draft was held on July 11, 2013. For each player selected in the supplemental draft, the team forfeits its pick in that round in the draft of the following season. 6 players were eligible, but none were selected.{{cite web|first=Greg |last=Rosenthal |title=No players selected in 2013 NFL Supplemental Draft |url=https://www.nfl.com/news/no-players-selected-in-2013-nfl-supplemental-draft-0ap1000000217280

Selections by conference

Selection totals by college conference (including supplemental draft):

: 63 players from one conference was an NFL draft record.{{cite news |first=Ethan |last=Grant |title=SEC Breaks Record with 63 Players Selected in 2013 NFL Draft |url=https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1621031-sec-breaks-record-with-63-players-selected-in-2013-nfl-draft

Twelve players from Southeastern Conference (SEC) programs were selected in the first round, which tied the record for most first-round selections from a single college conference set in 2006 by the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Schools with multiple draft selections

Popular culture

During Super Bowl XLVII, the NFL presented a promotional advertisement for the 2013 Draft featuring retired athlete Deion Sanders attempting a comeback return under the name "Leon Sandcastle". The ad followed the fictional exploits of Sandcastle (portrayed by Ball State cornerback Andre Dawson) through tryouts until he is drafted first overall by the Kansas City Chiefs.
