<p>Texas high school football will be played in just over a month from now, so it's time to get the trenches ready for battle. And nowhere produces out of the offensive trenches quite like the Metroplex does on a year-to-year basis. As top offensive linemen in the 2026 class have finished up their visits and chosen their next home, it is now time for battle. Let's check out some of the senior offensive anchors with stock set to rise in '25. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The leader of an excellent OL unit, Stover, is violent and versatile from the center position. The Duke commit displays quick feet and a great anchor immediately off the snap. He seeks out contact and finishes plays into the second level, often in the form of pancakes. Stover also plays with a great pad level and is very sound with his footwork and hand placement. While consistently good with his snapping ability, Sean displays the technique, athleticism, and strength to slide in anywhere on a premier high school offensive line. Expect another great season this year as he looks to help lead the Eagles to a state championship and prepare for his next chapter in Durham.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">An absolute unit of a left tackle, Tisaby, a recent Arizona State commit, looks like he could slide into their offense and protect the pocket already this season. Tisaby has a strong pass pro set and excels at not overstepping, thus always keeping edge rushers in front of him. His long wingspan allows him to maintain a good pad-level and smooth footwork while extended, locking defenders out of the pocket. Tisaby also displays the short-area quickness to recover if beaten off the snap. As the key QB protector for one of CFW's biggest powerhouses, expect Cortavious to continue adding more versatility to his game and help lead the Golden Bears on a deep playoff run. The Sun Devils have landed a great one in #56.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">A large-framed right tackle, Seaton has a nice blend of power and agility, which he uses to excel in the run game and pick up protection on pass plays. Seaton is a bruiser with a high motor, showcasing explosiveness and nasty finishing ability. With a quick first step and solid bend, he displays the ability and discipline to keep defenders in front of him and hold the edge in both run and pass protection. Kole also demonstrates that he possesses sufficient athleticism and short-area quickness to succeed in pull concepts and downfield blocking. Seaton will look to make a massive impact on the Falcon offense in his first year at NFHS. Expect the Baylor commit to continue to come into his own and develop his raw talent, which should make the sky the limit for Seaton. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">A massive mauler of a guard, Williams spends most of his time on the left side, providing a strong anchor for the Aledo offense. Payton plays with great explosive hands off the snap and great instincts. He does a good job of playing low to high, consistently striking defensive linemen in the chest plate with power and precision. Williams also never stops after the initial attack, always seeking out another block to make in the second level in run packages. He will continue to develop his agility and footwork, ultimately making him an elite offensive guard ready to perform at the next level. Williams recently pledged a commitment to UTSA after a senior year where he will seek to help lead the Bearcats to the promised land.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Another lockdown left tackle, Sanogo, is a legit wall in pass protection, with a great first step and steady extension. With heavy hands, Khalil often displays the ability to throw edge rushers to the ground at the initial point of attack. The monstrous protector also lines up at guard from time to time, which showcases his precision in the run game as well. Sanogo thrives at firing out of his hips and pushing the pile with his brute strength and size. During his senior season, he will only get quicker and his footwork more fluid, leading to elite status for Sanogo. He recently declared the Arizona Wildcats as his next home, but will also be focused on helping lead the Broncos' offense in 2025. </p>
