Defensive Tackles: Crowded Rooms and Contract Chaos
Veteran defensive tackles took major hits post-draft. Christian Wilkins headlines the list due to injury rumors and new competition in Las Vegas. The Raiders drafted two defensive tackles, raising concerns over Wilkins’ future.
Kevin Givens also plummeted in value. The 49ers added Alfred Collins and CJ West, signaling a shift toward younger options. Givens may lose reps as early as this year and could be benched outright in 2025.
In Tampa Bay, Jordan Whitehead may be benched for Taiki Smith. Expect a shift toward versatility, leaving Whitehead as a rotational piece.
For the Jets, Tony Adams was penciled in as a starter, but Malachi Moore could be the future next to Andre Cisco.
Xavier Woods, now in Tennessee, is 30 and fading fast. The Titans drafted KJ Winston Jr., who could start if the season spirals.
If you’re aiming for depth, these “IDP Post Draft Losers” offer little. Look elsewhere for long-term DB help.
