***Use Code “ScottyB30” for 30% off your subscription*** As we begin to approach the high school football season in late August we wanted to look back at prospects in our film room series before we do a preseason update to our 2027 rankings.  Prospects in this series are being reviewed for a number of reasons.  They blew up from where we initially had them based on camp performances, we saw them during the spring/summer wanting to dive more into their junior seasons, we were very high on them while their recruitment is not backing that up, and several of these players are making the move to a new role or school.   Today we dive into the Film Room with 2027 Offensive Lineman!    Kjellesvik is one of the highest ranked offensive lineman in the class and we don't quite understand why he is not getting more tracking on the recruiting scene. The big 6'4" 260 pound left tackle has a great frame and moves bodies off the ball with force. Excellent pass blocker that is light on his feet while using his length. Gret use of his hands controlling defensive lineman. In the run game he seals, uses leverage, and powers defenders with his legs. To me he looks like a power 4 offensive lineman who brings the versatility to kick inside to guard if needed, but we see him best as a right tackle. Overall he is big, technically sound, and athletic.     This Florida Atlantic commit is absolutely massive at 6'6" 320 pounds at left tackle. He was outstanding at UA Next where some of the best Midwest offensive tackles were and he was among the best of them. Just engulfs opposing defenders with his pure size and long arms. Moves bodies with a strong lower half and driving dudes on the ground! His is actually pretty light on his feet for how large he is being able to get to the second level ahead of guys. Seals off the edge in the run game.     Mota is a huge offensive tackle who is headed to Minnesota next season. Quality athlete who also shines on the hardwood for St. Pats. Wide base and anchors well vs speed in pass pro. Mirrors pretty well against quality competition. Powerful use of his hands and is physical in the run game. Plays on the right side for St. Pats but has left tackle tools.     The Montini right tackle picked up a ton of steam this spring ultimately flipping his commitment to attend Illinois. The right tackle is a sound pass blocker that has a nice combination of strength and athleticism. Sound technically that moves body up front. Mirrors against pass rushers and does a nice job of pushing them up the field or getting them on the ground. Physical use of his hands.     Engstler is definitely among the best interior offensive lineman in the 2027 class. The guard plays with plus athleticism moving well to the second level hitting guys on the second level at 6'5" 245 pounds. Mirrors extremely well in a phone booth in pass protection. Pulls well with his footwork. This is a prospect that needs to be getting more attention!     The Eastern Michigan commit goes 6'5" and 260 pounds. Has been among the better lineman in the class from the time they came into high school. Wide bse and plays with a mean streak. Anchors very well in pass protection and moves guys off the ball in the run game with his size and athleticism. Solid movement skills.     Kenwood 6'2" 250 pound offensive tackle has a wide base moving pretty well in pass pro. Like the punch and can get his man on the ground. Plays with a mean streak. Good athlete that has solid technique. Plays a little taller with his long arms. Wins one on one match ups pretty consistently. Upside is probably kicking inside to guard.     Green is a big boy at 6'5" 330 pounds. The metro east standout plays with physicality at left tackle. Mauls in the run game with his combination of size, athleticism, and power. Understands angles and pushes defenders up field to push them out of the play. Could be best long term as a guard.     Thomas is a 6'1" 260 pound offensive lineman who plays at left tackle for his squad, but will need to move inside to guard at the next level. Solid technique and positioning. Understands leverage and use of angles. Opens holes by sealing well. Good positioning.     Street goes 6'1" 225 pounds playing right tackle for St. Rita. Probably will need to move inside to guard where he can get the most out of his ability. Very good puller who blocks well in space. Like the mobility getting to the second level. Solid raw strength with a frame to add on more bulk. The athletic tools are there to work with.     Wide bodied 6'3" 295 pound offensive lineman that is an athletic left guard. Good raw strength and movement skills. Does a nice job getting up to the second level blocking in space.     Cotton is a big bodied offensive lineman at 6'4" 275 pounds. The guard is a quality athlete that had 25 pancakes this past season. Also showed off his athleticism on the defensive front as well, but think he projects best on the offensive line.     The wide bodied 5'11" 300 pound offensive lineman is making the move over to Leo for his senior year. He is a decent athlete that projects best at guard. Had 40 pancakes last season and only gave up 1 sack.
