2027 draft outlook and analysis....... D-line

This yrs class was strong... next yrs class is also very good... teams that employ a 3-4 defense will be especially happy with the '27 class as they will almost assuredly find their dominant Nose


DE:

1. Matayo Uiagalelei ORE. 6'5" 272 Lbs. ---- next yrs Reuben Bain

2. Quincy Rhodes Ark 6'6" 276 Lbs. ---- compares favorably to Jared Verse

3. Cameron Crawford USC 6'5" 265 Lbs. --- equal in his pass rush and run defense

4. Justin Scott Miami 6'4" 298 Lbs. ---- Will be effective as a 4-3 DT or a 3-4 end

5. Tavion Gadson Kentucky 6'5" 298 Lbs. ---- inside pocket pusher

DT:

1. David Stone Oklahoma 6'3" 310 Lbs. ----
Very strong at the point of attack with no business being able to move the way he does at his size

2. Will Echoles Ole Miss. 6'3" 310 Lbs. ---- pushes the pocket from the middle and very good against the run.... consistently occupies multiple blockers

3. Jayden Jackson Oklahoma 6'2" 322 Lbs. --- great leverage and lateral movement

4. A.J. Holmes Tex. Tech. 6'3" 300 Lbs. ---- more run stuffer than pass rusher

5. A'Mauri Washington Ore. 6'3" 330 Lbs. ---- Monster in the middle and tops on my personal wish list next season... this man will keep O-line coaches up at night

 

422 LBs at 6'2"? Or should that be 322?

 

Lol.... yes, definitely 322

 

So instead of a full size suv, he's more like a Jeep........ Crazy how big some of these players are getting. And on top of that, they're faster than I ever was.....lol
