2025 Summer scouting - Peter Woods, iDL, Clemson

Defensive tackle was a pressing need for the New York Giants prior to the 2025 NFL Draft.

But even though the Giants spent the 65th overall pick on defensive lineman Darius Alexander, the position could be a need for them again in 2026. They’re hoping that several young players will take a step forward this year, but the potential is there for depth to continue to be an issue on the defensive line.

The good news is that the 2026 NFL Draft could once again feature a deep and talented class of defensive linemen.
