Today I wanted to look at interior defensive line prospects (IDL) in the upcoming draft, a position that many expect Pittsburgh will look to add to. The chart below is 2024 PFF Grades and the current Big Board that updates through the draft process:
The top overall IDL prospects on PFF’s current big board (#12) is Byron Murphy II of Texas. Snaps increased in the last three seasons (298, 392, 438), aligning primarily in the B and A gaps. Excellent 91.1 overall grade (OVR) last season, with 90-plus pass rush (PRSH) and true pass set (TPS) grades.
