Size matters a ton for this position, and once those guys with the size get the skill to match, they take off. This article will outline five prospects that could reach that P5 prospect level!
N-Kye Wynn N-Kye Wynn 6'5" | 245 lbs | OL Muskegon | 2025 State MI | Muskegon | Hudl | Twitter
N-Kye is a rising star in Michigan, and he’s already got an offer from Toledo. As I’ve said in another recent article, N-Kye has the foundation of a legitimate P5 Prospect. He’s a tall 6’5″ with good weight at 245 and looks like he has good arm length. Last season, he struggled with some of the speedier edge rushers, but he also bodied a ton of great talent. I’m extremely optimistic for N-Kye this season!
JJ Hirdes JJ Hirdes 6'5" | 265 lbs | OL Coopersville | 2025 State MI | Coopersville | Hudl | Twitter
Hirdes is another guy whose potential is sky-high. As I’ve said many times since I first saw him during the GetMAULED OL Camp, this is a prospect with Power 5 Potential. First off, JJ has extremely long arms and has ideal size at 6’5 260. He’s still quite raw, but he seems to be learning quickly, and I’ve seen him take coaching and apply it to his game first-hand. The sky is truly the limit for JJ!
Ethan Kraatz Ethan Kraatz 6'4" | 280 lbs | OL Saginaw Heritage | 2025 State MI | Saginaw Heritage | Hudl | Twitter
I watched Ethan yesterday at the GVSU Prospect Showcase, and he did well. While I was updating the rankings, I noted his great size and good run blocking. He’s also a guy who’s gone on quite the tour with camps! He already has an SVSU offer, and with a lot more work on his pass sets, he’ll earn plenty more offers in no time.
Spencer Beckeman Spencer Beckeman 6'6" | 270 lbs | OL Stoney Creek | 2025 State MI | Stoney Creek | Hudl | Twitter
Spencer is another guy whose skill is raw, but his size is excellent. At 6’6″, he’s as tall as most NFL linemen. Like most Stoney Creek linemen, Spencer’s run blocking is great. He’s good at driving his opponents back and even reaching the second level. Stoney Creek has had a few great linemen recently, so I am quite excited so see Spencer’s development.
Lamar Ashford Lamar Ashford 6'4" | 320 lbs | OL Ann Arbor Huron | 2025 State MI | AA Huron | Hudl | Twitter
LaMar is an interior O-Line prospect who looks very well-rounded. His film showcases his ability to be a brick wall in the passing game and a mauler in the run game. He’s one of the better fundamental linemen I watched film of. I see LaMar potentially improving a whole lot more, and this is a guy with Division 1 potential!
