QUICK TAKE FROM TOM SILVERSTEIN: “This is a pretty good pick, all things considered. They got a corner with their top pick and he’s a terrific athlete with long arms and press-man ability. He’s 5-11 3/4, 189 pounds, ran a 4.41-second 40-yard dash. Has 30 3/4 inch arms and 8⅟₂-inch hands. He's a true outside corner, which is what the Packers wanted. He started out at NC State and then after two seasons went to South Carolina. He only played three seasons in college so he's very raw. He only had two interceptions and 12 pass break ups in 21 starts.”

QUICK TAKE FROM TOM SILVERSTEIN: “He's 6-4, 313 pounds and has 34-inch arms and 11-inch hands. Very strong. Benched 225 pounds, 25 times. Started out at Florida where he was a backup for two years. Transferred to Missouri and then broke out with six sacks his senior year. He's not a typical nose tackle. He can shoot gaps and get after the quarterback, but like most college defensive linemen he's going to need some work with his techniques, especially when it comes to stopping the run. He should be able to play with Warren Brinson behind Javon Hargrave and Devonte Wyatt.”

QUICK TAKE FROM TOM SILVERSTEIN: “So, Dennis Sutton is 6-5⅝, 256 pounds. Ran the 40 in 4.63 seconds. Has long arms at 33⅟₂ inches and big hands at 10⅜. He had 17 sacks in his final two seasons and five forced fumbles. Very productive. Interesting to see why he lasted this long.”
PACKERSNEWS.COM ANALYSIS: “Has the size and athletic testing Gutekunst has favored in edge defenders, though he also was a productive player at a college football power. Dennis-Sutton was 6-5½ and 261 at his pro day, and weighed 5 pounds less at the combine when he ran 4.63 and jumped 39½ inches. His height, vertical, broad jump and three-cone drill ranked in the top 93rd percentile or better at the combine among edge defenders going back to 1999, according to MockDraftable. His 40 time was in the 85th percentile. Had 17 sacks and 25 tackles for loss in 29 games as a starter the last two seasons. ‘I think he’ll be there (at 52),’ one of the scouts said. ‘I thought he had a down year, even though his numbers were the same, he was more up and down. But he’s big and athletic. That’s right about where he's going going to go.’” − Pete Dougherty
The Green Bay Packers have selected Dani Dennis-Sutton with the 120th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
He played four years at Penn State. Here are highlights from his career, including at the Senior Bowl and NFL Scouting Combine earlier this year.
