Defensive Line

Commitments: Korey Foreman, 5-star DE; Cade Denhoff, 4-star DE.

Targets:

  • Payton Page, 5-star DT

No one has recruited the defensive line better than Clemson these past two cycles. The Tigers have tons of talent and depth along the defensive line and that’s not going anywhere anytime soon.

Clemson has offered a few more defensive linemen, but the main name remaining for this 2021 cycle is 5-star DT Payton Page, who is an absolute monster.

Clemson could add another prospect or two at the position, but it’s clear the Tigers are focused in on him heading into the spring as they already struck gold with Foreman (No. 1 player in the country) and Denhoff at defensive end.
