Hamilton (6’3/299) joined fellow 2025 draftee Tyleik Williams to form arguably the most destructive defensive tackle tandem in the country for DC Jim Knowles’ No. 1 ranked defense. He earned Honorable Mention All-Big Ten each of the last two seasons, starting all 16 games with 51 tackles, 6.0 TFLs, and 28 stops with an efficient 7.8% missed tackle rate. Hamilton ran an 88th percentile 4.95s 40-yard dash with a pair of 85th percentile jumps and a Herculean 35 bench reps (96th percentile) for an excellent 9.22 Relative Athletic Score. His stocky frame allows Hamilton to operate with a leverage advantage, while his above-average athleticism gives him a quickness advantage on the snap. He isn’t a particularly nuanced pass rusher, but his ability to eat up blocks and disengage made him a fearsome run defender. Hamilton’s athleticism and quick feet should land him a job as a rotational interior lineman on early downs.
