2025 Clemson Football Preview: Defensive Tackles

  • Posted by arguelles on November 22, 2025 at 2:58 am

    It’s hard to believe Clemson football is finally upon us. As is tradition, Clemson’s defense will once again feature a group of tackles that will make you wonder how a man that large can move like that. The DTs will be a huge part of Clemson’s return to playing like a National Championship program. Let’s dig into and see what the big fellas in the middle have to UpPeter Woods 6′ 3, 310 Jr. Alabaster, AL Thompson HighOn a star studded defense, PWoo is the top NFL prospect. Last year saw him playing out of position as a defensive end. This year, Woods comes in even better shape than he has been, and as he returns to his natural fit at defensive tackle, Peter will be looking to have a huge season to ensure a large payday should he enter the Capehart 6′ 5, 315 Gr. Hartsville, SC Hartsville HighClemson and Capehart got a huge blessing this offseason when Demonte was granted a 6th season due to medical redshirt. Capehart has been an absolute beast at tackle the last two years when he’s healthy, but staying healthy has been an issue. While he’s not a top 10 projected pick like Peter Woods, Capehart is certainly a guy on NFL teams’ radars and finally putting together a healthy, consistent year could land him solidly as a second to third round draft Guys UpVic Burley 6’4 Khalil Barnes Jersey, 320 RS So. Warner Robins, GA Warner Robins HighBurley is a guy who was a very hyped recruit when he joined the program, and has had some time to sit behind some talented tackles while also learning from Coach Eason. This year should be the year we see Burley break into the regular rotation and make an impact. With Demonte Capehart on his last season and Peter Woods likely to go pro after this season https://www.clemsontigersfansshop.com/241-Hogan_Morton_Jersey, I’m excited to see what Vic Burley can show us this year, because if all goes according to plan, he will be a key starter in Adams 6’4, 310 Fr. Jefferson, SC South Florence HighA 5star and consensus top 100 national player, Adams was one of the jewels of this recruiting class. Physically he already looks the part and has the talent to boot. It will be worth watching in the LSU game to see how much action he gets, given how big of a test this is for a young tackle. Even if we were to not see a whole lot of him in game one, I expect him to make an impact for the Tigers sooner rather than Green 6’4, 290 RS So. Rome, GA Rome HighStephiylan has been fun to watch progress over the past few season, and I really am hoping to see him take that next step and be able to make an impact in the rotation. https://www.clemsontigersfansshop.com/221-Trent_Howard_Jersey
