Experienced WSU interior defender with proven game-day durability
Tapa’s strongest selling point is reliability: Washington State’s roster lists him as a defensive tackle, and his career bio shows he played in all 13 games in his 2016 redshirt-sophomore season while logging 10 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, and a quarterback hurry. He profiles as a low-flash, high-discipline interior lineman who can hold the point, stay available, and contribute in rotation rather than dominate the stat sheet. If you want size, effort, and a player who fits a team-first trench role, he’s the kind of fit that makes a depth chart sturdier.
