<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Looking for some big fellas up front? Well, you came to the right place! Today we're looking at which 2026 offensive linemen you should keep an eye on this offseason. These guys stood out on tape as juniors and have the ability to play at the next level. I believe that even a few of these guys will be playing at the FBS level in the fall of 2026.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As always, If you have someone you think I need to see, please DM them to me on Twitter at @hsfbscout!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1524990' first='Kaden' last='Scherer'], 6'6" 265, Georgetown</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He shows heavy hands at the point of attack, he has the balance/body control to secure blocks at the second level, and stays hip to hip with his double team partner with his eyes up. He's got a projectable frame, moves well for a big man, and is a highly effective blocker in space.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Colton Cordova, 6'7" 290, Groesbeck</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A high-effort, physical prospect who imposes his will with both size and strength. He's flexible, punches on a rise, and has enough athleticism to get outside and pull on the perimeter. He needs to work on speeding his feet on contact but I think there's some ability that can still be unlocked. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1646922' first='Eli' last='Holbrook'], 6'4" 305, Arlington</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An aggressive finisher who plays with a mean streak. He's got loose hips, he pulls with bad intentions, and can displace down linemen by himself. He's got impressive grip strength and can easily latch on &amp; maintain blocks. He's shown the versatility/athleticism to play both tackle and guard. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1647413' first='Rowdy' last='Pearce'], 6'4" 285, Midland Christian</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A tough prospect who is always looking for work and has some serious pop on-contact. He can get out of his stance, wrap around the guard, and pick up opposing blitzers. He's quick out of his stance, fires off the football low, and is dominant when taking on second-level defenders. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Zephaniah Franks, 6'5" 310, Tom Glenn</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A big man who can bend, he drives defenders off the ball with a wide base and has the lateral quickness to mirror much faster rushers. He can play both tackle spots, has hands like bricks, and can stonewall opposing defenders. I'd like to see a little more of him as a pass-protector, but I do like his upside. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Keaton Fraser, 6'4" 280, Frisco Heritage</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I think Keaton is a guard prospect at the next level. He's got a really strong upper-half, he's highly effective at generating knockdowns on down blocks, and does a good job ID'ing potential blitzers pre-snap. He's got to work on his footwork a bit, but I love the consistent edge he plays with. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
