Continuing our series of all-time players, let’s take a look at the best defensive linemen.

Penn State has had its share of riches on the defensive side of the ball through the years, and the defensive line is no exception.  It has seemed like the Nittany Lions have had years where they could just reload along the defensive line instead of rebuild.

There are so many outstanding defensive tackles and defensive ends that it was difficult to narrow down this list.   There are definitely some great Nittany Lions that just missed the cut.

Let’s get to the list of the top defensive linemen in Penn State history. Feel free to leave comments.
