Abdul Carter was arguably the best defensive player in the country last season, leading the nation in tackles for loss (24). The two-time First Team All-Big Ten selection had the third-most pressures (66) and the seventh-most sacks (12.0) in FBS last season.
Likely Landing Spots:
- Tennessee Titans The Titans have the No. 1 overall pick and are in need of a franchise quarterback and edge rusher.
- Cleveland Browns The Browns need pass rush help regardless of Myles Garrett’s future with the team.
- New England Patriots Drafting Carter could fulfill a desperate need as they hold the No. 4 pick.
- Carolina Panthers They finished 32nd in pressure rate and need to bolster their defense.
- Jacksonville Jaguars With a new defensive coordinator, adding Carter could improve their pass rush, finishing 30th in sack rate last year.
