Continuing the series, I wanted to look at defensive tackles, where Pittsburgh selected Keeanu Benton at pick 49 in the second round. Following my 2022 run defense and pass rush studies on him, as well as a 2021 run defense article, today’s goal is to look at pass rushing in the 2021 season using Sports Info Solutions (SIS). The article will focus on the players who heard their names called in the 2023 NFL draft, 300+ pounders that will likely play on the interior (as Benton is projected to), and one player was excluded due to SIS not tracking smaller schools.
