Iowa State freshman DL Charlie Woleben brings disruptive edge-rush upside
Charlie Woleben arrives at Iowa State as a 6-4, 245-pound defensive lineman with real take-the-top-off-the-edge traits: in his 2024 high school season at DeSoto, he posted 46 tackles, 12 tackles for loss, and 9 sacks, while also blocking two punts and forcing two fumbles. He was a top-15 player in Kansas and a three-star recruit, and the special-teams splash plays hint at the motor and nastiness coaches love. If your team wants length, effort, and an edge defender who can create chaos, he’s a very interesting fit.
