Top 5 OL in Alamance/Chatham/Lee County

We're wrapping up our county deep dives on offensive positions by evaluating the best offensive linemen in Alamance/Chatham/Lee County. Unlike most of the other positions, there aren't a lot of statistical leaderboards for the big guys up front. We create this list the old-fashioned way: deep dives into the film, breaking down the best players in the county purely based on their abilities and what they put on tape. Here are the top five offensive linemen in Alamance/Chatham/Lee County.   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Best Offensive Linemen in Alamance/Chatham/Lee County</h2>   Editor's Note: The ranked offensive linemen are listed in order from first to sixth. Other names are in no particular order. Rankings reflect a combination of 2025 production and predicted 2026 impact. That means this is not a ranking of college potential, but of current high school impact.

With the team's narrow splits, Miller's often in a four-point stance, where he can fire off the ball and displace defenders. The all-conference selection will lead an inexperienced line that loses several starters.     Southeast Alamance typically has strong line play, and 2025 was no exception. But like the rest of the top teams in the region, most of the veteran line won't return this season. Byrd-Marshall is an exception, and the 6'2" tackle plays longer than his frame suggests, allowing him to excel in both the passing and running games.     An all-conference honorable mention, Hensley excels at using his reach to get to spots that most tackles can't make, at least not while staying upright. He can down block a three-technique or even reach and seal an edge rusher inside on sweeps. Interestingly, Western Alamance used him some off the ball as an H-back, a testament to his athleticism.     Nelson stands out on the film of other players, something that always impresses me with offensive linemen. Primarily a right tackle, he has a good combination of size and athleticism, allowing him to face both bigger power rushers and smaller edge rushers. He can climb to the next level, and he's never finished with a play until the whistle blows, even if he's on the backside of the play.     Wilson isn't the biggest guy, but he fires off the ball from his center position and can create a lot of forward momentum. He keeps a good base and uses his leg drive to hold his own against bigger interior defenders. His strength is in his ability to climb to the second level, and he keeps his shoulders square to make himself a bigger blocker to wall off defenders.    <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Names To Know</h2>   Gustavo Rivera | Southern Lee   This is the time of year when we have the most time to dive into film, re-evaluate prospects, and revisit past opinions about players across the state.
