2026 NFL Draft Preview: Edge Rushers
No one returns a more imposing defensive line than Clemson.
2026 NFL Draft Rankings: S || CB || LB
No one returns a more imposing defensive line than Clemson, which features impressive athletic specimen TJ Parker (photo: Clemson). With a relentless motor and overwhelming power, Parker possesses a lightning quick first step, which leaves opponents in the dust. He is coming off a double-digit sack performance, where he set a new school record with six forced fumbles.
Another player worth watching includes Oregon pass-rusher Matayo Uiagalelei, who led the Big Ten with 10.5 sacks a year ago. While he has displayed the versatility to play with his hand in the dirt on the line of scrimmage, or standing up as an outside linebacker, the heavy-handed Uiagalelei needs to diversify his counter attack.
