Another Carl Albert defensive lineman we will be taking a look at is Joe Thomas Joe Thomas DL Carl Albert | 2027 State OK . Thomas is a physical lineman who brings a combination of strength, athleticism, and technique to the front. He comes off the ball with good power and shows the ability to generate knockback at the point of attack. What I really like about Thomas is how well he moves for a defensive lineman. He does a good job getting underneath the tackle when working through a slant and is effective at creating movement up front. He is also a physical player who isn’t afraid to attack pulling defenders and take on whatever comes his way. Thomas shows a good power-to-speed rush technique and does a nice job keeping the quarterback in the pocket when rushing the passer. He plays with good technique and understands how to stay disciplined while still applying pressure. His combination of movement skills, physicality, and technique makes him a defensive lineman to keep an eye on this season.

We mentioned earlier how the Titans lost arguably the heart and soul from their defense last season and it came from the defensive line. But this is a position group that is not lacking talent coming into this season. 2027 defensive lineman Joe Thomas Joe Thomas DL Carl Albert | 2027 State OK returns for his third season as a starter up front for the Titans and he’s been a consistent game-wrecker on the line of scrimmage for the Titans. Thomas had another successful season last year, finishing with six sacks and countless pressures on the quarterback. Now, the spotlight on him is definitely going to be brighter but Thomas has the experience and overall talent level to meet the challenge and win.
