If the Dolphins mission for the 2025 NFL Draft was to get bigger, mission accomplished. And what better name to bookend this year's draft than with a 320-pound defensive tackle named Zeek Biggers?

The Georgia Tech product was a two-year starter and four-year player at the same program. Six of the eight Dolphins draft picks finished their college careers in the same place they began no small feat in the transfer portal era.

Much like the two defensive tackles taken prior, Biggers is a position-diverse, tough-to-move strong man.

Dependable and available

At one of the most rugged positions in all of sports, Biggers was always available for the Yellow Jackets defense. After missing three games as a freshman, Biggers would go on to play 47 total games, including 37 in a row to end his career and 29 starts.

Thou shall not run!

Over 80 percent of Biggers' workload in 2024 came on first and second downs. He's a big-bodied, long-armed tree stump capable of clogging things up in the middle. Playing at 6-foot-6, 328 pounds at Georgia Tech, Biggers often starts reps out-leveraged simply because of his height in comparison to shorter offensive linemen. But while the offense gets the advantage out of the gate with the pad level, Biggers has a special talent he deploys post-snap.

With an 85.5-inch wingspan, Biggers topped the charts at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine. Only one other player (Texas defensive tackle Alfred Collins) measured within an inch (85 inches) of Biggers' pterodactyl length.

According to Pro Football Focus, Biggers collected 45 career stops on 702 snaps against the run and added 23 quarterback pressures on 658 pass rush attempts.

Field goal block specialist

Clogging double teams, making tackles behind the line of scrimmage and batting down passes are all essential skills of a massive defensive tackle. For Biggers, his length helps in the kicking game as well.

Nobody blocked more field goals across college football the last four seasons than Biggers, who averaged one per season.

"I feel like getting extension on the block, keeping the guy off my chest is a way I use it a lot," Biggers said. "That's a big thing. Another big thing would be batting down passes, kind of laying out, reaching for rolled tackles and stuff, when I'm running to the ball it just gives me some perks to add on."
