Now we dive into each position to look at who is the cream of the crop including here in <strong>2025 Rankings: Top Offensive Lineman</strong>!</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='830244' first='Zak' last='Stoilov'] (Maine South – 6'4” 265)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Stoilov is a left tackle at 6'4" that has all the tools you look for in a young offensive lineman. Great footwork and mobility. Mirrors his pass rusher. Can block in space both in the screen game or run. Very athletic and strong at the point of attack. Mean streak in the run game.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='830248' first='Matt' last='Marek'] (Sandburg – 6'4” 280)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Marek is one of if not the best pass blocking left tackles in the class. At 6'4" the Indiana commit uses his length, hands, and footwork to not allow defenders to get past him. Good athlete that is very comfortable in space vs edge rushers. Drives in the run game and locks on to his man and rides him into the ground.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='830843' first='Michael' last='McDonough'] (Andrew – 6'4” 290)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Illini commit is a beast at right guard. He is an absolute mauler and pancake machine. Drives with his legs with force. Gets to the second level on blocks in the run game. Moves guys with his raw strength and technique.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='830842' first='Jake' last='Sulzberger'] (Lemont – 6'5” 260)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This Lemont 6'5" right tackle has excellent length and he knows how to use it! Love how he keeps pass rushers at bey with his long arms not letting them get into his body. Sets well in the pass game anchoring. In the run game he is a mauler that has a strong punch at the point of attack and gets to the second level.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1292060' first='Michael' last='O'Connell'] (Glenbard West – 6'7” 270)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>O'Connell is a massive offensive tackle at 6'7" 270 pounds that can play on both sides of the line. Controls the defensive lineman with his hands whether in the run or pass game. Great length not letting them get in his body. Seals well. Good athlete with a basketball background which just goes to show you the athleticism at play here.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='832142' first='Tommy' last='Lamberti'] (Carmel - 6'8” 330)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lamberti is an absolutely massive human at 6'8" 330 pounds! It is over when he gets his hands on the defender. Solid feet. Finishes off guys to the ground both in the pass and run game. Turns guys the way he wants them in the run. Plays a bit high with his height and might struggle a bit with speed, but a lot to work with here!</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1292082' first='Ben' last='Konopka'] (St. Viator – 6'3” 280)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Konopka is a 6'3" left tackle that has impressive tape. Plays with a nasty streak. Physical at point of attack in the run game and drives with his legs. The athleticism really pops being able to get to the second level. Plus pass blocker that is light on his feet mirroring his opponent while using his length to keep them away from his body.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1292086' first='Jacob' last='Wilk'] (Lake Zurich – 6'6” 290)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Liked what we saw on tape from this 6'6" 290 lineman as a left tackle. Great frame, size, and mobility. Seals well in the run game and moves bodies off the line. Plays with a nasty streak. Mirrors well in the pass pro displaying quality footwork.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='537261' first='Rhett' last='Vanboening'] (Libertyville – 6'3” 260)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Vanboening is a right guard that has lot of the tools you look for. The 6'3" lineman has a frame to continue to add strength. Pulls very well in the run game showcasing mobility and footwork. Physicality at the point of attack mauling in the run game. Good hand placement and is an above average pass blocker from the guard spot. Sound technique and does the little things well.</p>
