2009 NFL Draft Rankings: DT

DEFENSIVE TACKLES 1. Terrance Taylor- Michigan, Sr- First of all, the defensive tackle class this year is not too strong. Taylor is probably the front runner at this point. The big downside to Taylor is that he probably won’t be in for passing downs in the NFL, because he is primarily a run stopper. 2. B.J. Raji- Boston College, Sr- Raji is the best overall talent at defensive tackle this year but he has awful character issues that are driving teams away from him. Raji has been suspended and ejected for on-field problems. 3. Fili Moala- Southern California, Sr- Moala shows a lot of potential, but he needs to bulk up if he wants to be successful in the NFL.
