Blake Schmidt brings veteran interior-line disruption to Montana State
Blake Schmidt is a senior 6-2, 300-pound defensive tackle for Montana State who has already shown he can be a disruptive, productive interior defender, with 33 tackles, 3 sacks, and a pass breakup across his 2022-2024 seasons, plus a reputation for creating backfield pressure and chasing TFLs. He started 12 games in 2023 and was described by Montana State as a third-year starting DT, but his 2024 season was cut short by a season-ending injury in game five, so the key question for a team is health; when active, he looks like a tough, experienced plug-and-pressure fit in the middle.
