NFL draft position series: Defensive line

Three of the top 10 talents in the 2023 NFL Draft are defensive linemen, and when the post-mortem review of this class takes place in four or five years, that number might be exceedingly higher.

Alabama's Will Anderson Jr. and Texas Tech's Tyree Wilson are pro-ready pass rushers at defensive end who could move to outside linebacker in the perfect scheme fit.

Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter was once in the conversation to be drafted No. 1 overall. Grading on talent alone, he remains worthy of that consideration. But while Anderson and Wilson could be the posterboys for their position, Carter's complete draft profile is more of a puzzle or riddle.
