Defensive Tackle Rankings 2027 NFL Draft

18 defensive tackles ranked

DEFENSIVE TACKLE RANKINGS 2027 NFL DRAFT

Interior defensive line is a strength of this class. Three tackles sit inside our top thirty-two, a depth bettered only once in the last seven years, and the top man is inside the top ten.

Oklahoma's David Stone leads it, a five-star who added eighteen pounds of muscle before his sophomore year and led the Sooners' interior in tackles, anchoring against doubles at Texas and living in Auburn's backfield. Ole Miss's Will Echoles broke out across 765 snaps with pressure production almost no interior player in the country matched, including a five-pressure day against Florida and repeated wins over Georgia. Miami's Justin Scott, a five-star who made Bruce Feldman's Freaks List before playing a college snap, has the get-off of a movement three-technique at 298 pounds.

The drop after the top three is steep, so the value here is concentrated rather than spread through the class.
