Rayshaun Benny 2026 NFL Draft Profile | DL3T from Michigan
Scouting Report
Rayshaun Benny is a veteran fifth-year defensive tackle who spent four years developing behind Michigan's stacked interior line featuring first-rounders Mason Graham and Kenneth Grant, contributing to two national championship teams. The Detroit native and former four-star recruit demonstrated patience and resilience, bouncing back from a broken fibula suffered in the 2024 Rose Bowl victory over Alabama to gradually regain form mid-season. His game is built on power and leverage rather than flash, with exceptional anchor strength against double teams, disciplined gap integrity, and devastating stack-and-shed technique that allows him to control and discard blockers. Benny showcased his abilities most notably with eight tackles, two TFLs, and one sack against Fresno State, plus critical performances in Big Ten matchups against Washington and Ohio State, where he shared Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week honors. With 42 career games and the experience of Michigan's championship-caliber system, he enters 2025 as the Wolverines' most experienced interior defender, finally positioned to showcase his complete skill set as an unquestioned starter after accumulating 72 tackles, 9.0 TFLs, and 2.5 sacks over his first four seasons.
Strengths
Exceptional anchor against double teams with powerful lower body strength and natural leverage that allows him to reset the line of scrimmage
Maintains gap integrity with disciplined hand placement and understanding of blocking schemes, rarely getting washed out of responsibility
Displays impressive lateral agility for his size, showing ability to mirror ball carriers and make tackles when runs bounce to perimeter
Devastating stack-and-shed technique where he controls offensive linemen before violently discarding them to make plays
Consistently collapses the pocket with bull rush power, generating push that forces quarterbacks to abandon their platform
Possesses violent hands that shock offensive linemen back on initial contact, creating immediate separation
Shows relentless motor and pursuit attitude, chasing plays downfield with surprising speed for 305 pounds
Weaknesses
Limited as a pass rusher beyond bull rush, lacking counters and hand-fighting finesse to consistently win when initial power move is stalled
Pad level rises on extended drives, causing him to lose leverage battles and limiting effectiveness when fatigue sets in
Medical concerns linger after 2024 fibula break, with visible impact on explosiveness through parts of following season
Occasionally over-commits to run fits, creating cutback lanes when aggressively shooting gaps instead of maintaining position
First-step quickness is merely adequate rather than exceptional, limiting ability to consistently penetrate against NFL-caliber interior linemen
One-dimensional pass rush approach will limit ceiling unless he develops secondary moves
Limited statistical production raises questions about whether it was scheme-related or ceiling indicator
Player Comparisons
Power-based anchor defender with Mason Graham-like gap discipline but needs to develop pass rush versatility; projects as rotational run-stuffer with Javon Hargrave-type potential if pass rush improves
