Games are won and lost up front. While it's difficult for a big man to make an immediate impact jumping from high school to college, the 2024 ESPN 300 features six defensive linemen among the 23 five-star recruits. Simply put, this group has a chance to be special and has several players who could quickly play key roles. Miami, Georgia and Oklahoma put together the best defensive line classes in 2024. For the Hurricanes and Bulldogs, that adds to some tremendous depth on the defensive front.
Here's our look at which teams did the best recruiting top defensive linemen and how the top 10 linemen fit with their signed team and how quickly they could make an impact.
