0:00On April 8, Dominique Orange, the Iowa State Nose Tackle, known as Big Citrus, is turning his for the 2026 NFL Draft. This 322-pounder stands six-flit-two-inches with 33- and 3-8-inch arms, not the biggest guy out there, but his. Tape shows real promise as a run-stuffer who could slide right into a team's defensive line. Earlier this week, Scouts lit up over his explosive first step in raw power, letting him drive line in back and eat up double teams like it's nothing. He plays with that gritty toughness, creating piles in the middle and freeing up linebackers to make plays, even if he's not chasing downrunners. Side line to side line. Fans and analysts are buzzing because the New York Giants need interior help. Maybe a backup to Dexter Lawrence, or even a starter if trade shake. Things up. Orange's ability to hold the point against the run has folks calling him a sneaky good fit for their scheme. Something unheralded into must watch.

1:00Digging deeper, his past Russianies' work lacks the speed and finesse to finish consistently, and technique glitches like lunging can throw him off. Balance. Still, he's shown enough short-area quickness and stunts to disrupt quarterbacks indirectly. Bottom line. Expect Orange as a day-to-pick, starting rotational before polishing up to disrupt NFL offense's full-time. Giants better keep an eye on. This citrus bomb before he ripens elsewhere.
