2022 DT Draft Prospects

Defensive tackles can change the game from the middle of the line of scrimmage. While many people will focus on edge players, it is the defensive tackle that causes the offensive line to fold in the middle. Most DTs are better run defenders and don't collect many sacks, which can cause people to overlook them.

This year's draft class is deep at defensive tackle. Up to three could be drafted during the first round (led by Georgia's Jordan Davis), versatile players can be had on day two, and starters can even be found on day three.
