Way Too Early 2025 NFL Draft Defensive Line Rankings
The 2024 NFL Draft is in the books which means we don’t have anything football related to be excited about for a few months. As we gear up for next football season, I’m going to be releasing my way too early 2025 NFL Draft rankings to get you up to speed on the prospects you need to know. Next up on the list is the offensive line rankings. Enjoy them and feel free to comment on any disagreements you have.
Just a heads up from me. The rest of the positions are just going to be top ten. I went more expansive for the quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers. I need to start transitioning into fantasy content and most of my opinion on the big dudes up front comes from the Combine anyway. I’m just going to sprinkle some names I like for this post.
Defensive Tackle:
5: Nazir Stackhouse (Georgia)
Really quality nose tackle for Georgia. Former four star guy. Eats up the middle of the field. All SEC defender. Impact goes beyond the box score. Has the ability to swat down passes and be more than a field clogger.
4: Tyleik Williams (Ohio State)
Former four star guy checking in at 6-foot-3, 330. Had five sacks as a freshman and three last year from the interior. Now is the time to take a step forward and prove he’s a dominant force inside.
3: Kenneth Grant (Michigan)
I love mammoths that clog the middle. What can I say? The dynamic Texas had last year with Sweat and Murphy is what Michigan should bring to the table with Grant and Graham. Grant is more in line of the Sweat model. Checks in at 340 and was All Big 10 last year. Had 3.5 sacks as a sophomore with more room to grow this year.
2: Dontay Corleone (Cincinnati)
If you don’t know who this is you need to start. I have no idea where others stand on him but I don’t care. I saw some Cincinnati games last year and he popped off the screen. Looks like a really good player to me. We’ll find out more this year.
1: Mason Graham (Michigan)
I gotta have this guy on my team. I absolutely love him. Former wrestler and the guy hand fights his ass off. Former four star guy from California. I don’t care what his numbers are. He’s tough, stops the run, and really knows how to win with his hands. I’m a huge fan and should be a top 10 pick next year.
Edge:
5: Landon Jackson (Arkansas)
Ignore the fact that he looks like Jordan Walsh. This dude can rush the passer. He had 6.5 sacks last year as a sophomore and he checks in at 6-foot-7. Has some serious length on him. Former four star guy and former LSU property. The Razorbacks have bled talent but they kept this guy. He can play.
4: James Pearce Jr. (Tennessee)
Really good year last year as a sophomore. Moved in the right direction 9.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, and a pick. Good athlete and former four star guy. Needs to show he can win more with power rather than raw athletic tools. We’ll see if that happens this year.
3: Abdul Carter (Penn State)
I mean… the guy kinda looks like Micah Parsons. He’s following in his foot steps in terms of play style too. Stand up linebacker that’s now just going to rush the passer on the edge. Athletic freak and made a big impact right away as a freshman. I’ll take him on my team.
2: J.T. Tuimoloau (Ohio State)
Former monster five star recruit. The guy wrecks the game when he’s hot. We’ve seen it so many times. Could have easily declared already. Can win in a multitude of ways and has a different gear others don’t. If you’re selling this stock I’ll take all of it.
1: Mykel Williams (Georgia)
Former five star guy who will turn into a much better version of Travon Walker. Once he grows into a three technique, this guy is going to take over. Look fantastic during the Spring Game. Had 4.5 sacks each as a freshman and sophomore. Get ready for the takeover this year. It’s coming.
