2017 NFL draft rankings: Top 10 defensive lineman

The Miami Dolphins are still searching for another defensive tackle to pair with Ndamukong Suh. Could they find that missing piece in the draft class? My rankings below consist of defensive tackles and 3-4 defensive ends. There’s some good talent here, but this year’s class is thinner than recent classes.

Honorable mentions: Carlos Watkins (DT), Clemson; Eddie Vanderdoes (DT), UCLA; Davon Godchaux (DT), LSU; Jaleel Johnson (NT), Iowa; Elijah Qualls (DT), Washington.

10. Charles Walker (DL), 6’1” and 310 pounds, Oklahoma: Walker was used in a unique way at Oklahoma, before leaving the team early for draft preparation.
