2025 Rankings Breakdown: Offensive Line Addition

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Starting with the offensive line in our positional breakdown series, this is a very deep and talented group. All in all the 2025 Virginia offensive linemen we have ranked I see 20 plus that will go at least the FCS level and it could be more. I broke down the top 5 ranked offensive linemen below:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1228316"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"The number 1 linemen and the 2nd ranked kid overall in our 2025 class is Salem's [player_tooltip player_id='1228316' first='Jaylen' last='Gilchrist']. With good reason I might add, Gilchrist is our top remaining uncommitted prospect thus far and he has more than enough suitors. It seems that Coach Beamer and South Carolina have zeroed him and the Gamecocks appear to be the favorite to land the 6'6 320 tackle. In regards to his play the young man is master in pass blocking, love his ability to recover even if he may be beaten initially off the snap. He is athletic and quick enough to recover, he will be a bookend tackle for a power 5 school next fall. Whether it is with South Carolina, Maryland or Alabama, you should expect too see him on your television screens Saturday afternoons by 2025.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["1228322"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Clemson really cleaned up in this 2025 class as they have 4 out of top 11 recruits in Virginia including [player_tooltip player_id='1228322' first='Easton' last='Ware']. Coming in at number 7 overall the Liberty Christian Academy star leads the way for current and future teammate [player_tooltip player_id='1228323' first='Gideon' last='Davidson'].  Ware has very good hand and footwork, you can see why his staff loves to move him around he is excellent at getting at the next level on his blocks. Their offense seems to flow much better when Davidson is following his lead, but their not much to complain about when they average close to 40 points per contest. It seems the all state selection Ware is just beginning to scratch the surface of his potential, cannot wait to see what is looks like as a final product.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16244941/6521705ff56a7d044479bc41u0022u003e[player_tooltip player_id='1228322' first='Easton' last='Ware'] HUDLu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1228329"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Since we last saw him at our Showcase last spring tearing it up, Stallard's progress for an FBS scholarship have come thru. Committing to Virginia Tech in late January the Hokies are keeping the 3rd ranked lineman home. Christiansburg High School already knows about this young man, he can play tackle at the next level too. After his impressive showcase outing in 2023 here is what I wrote about him:rnrnu003cemu003eOne of the top ranked players for 2025 that we are not talking about yet is u003cspan class=u0022pn-tooltip pn-player-linku0022u003eu003cspan class=u0022name-pointeru0022u003eCarter Stallardu003c/spanu003eu003c/spanu003e . Watching him at the Pennsylvania Showcase up close had me believing what many colleagues were talking about, he is worth the hype. A 3 star recruit already this rising junior turned heads in the 1 0n 1 drills going up against defensive lineman he had never faced before. His recruitment and rightful recognition are starting to gain steam and do not be shocked if he is ranked in the top ten when our 2025 rankings come out soon.u003c/emu003e","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1228338"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"If you do not know about Forest Park tackle [player_tooltip player_id='1228338' first='Nathaniel' last='Wright'] you are missing out, he will be playing at a Power 5 school very soon.rnrnu003cemu003eIn regards to his play, he is a mean nasty bookend tackle in a run heavy offense, you do not want to get on this young man's bad side. Standing at 6'5 and 280 lbs. Wright does not have much baby fat on him and he knows how to get to the next level after every block.

And to say I missed out would be putting it lightly, the Wake Forest commit is a mean offensive tackle for the Vikings. Saba is 6'5 and 270 lbs. with a look of a young man who does not have a lot of body fat on him. He is one of the most physical run blockers I have seen on tape in quite some time and his pass blocking is superb also. Playing basketball this past winter for Loudoun Valley Saba is very athletic and I could see him playing guard on the offensive line for the Demon Deacons next year. Very agile and keeps a good base when is on the move, you are best staying out of his way when you see him pulling your way.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16772695/65197a7c42060903cc9302a2u0022u003e[player_tooltip player_id='1228350' first='Will' last='Saba'] HUDLu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66142866d1f51"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
