2025 Scouting Evaluations: Offensive Line (Part 2)

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Class of 2025 having the opportunity to sign a national letter of intent is getting closer and closer with every passing day. With that said let's continue our series of looking at the top 2025's in MS and updating their evaluations and projections:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='653164' first='Bryce' last='Vaughn'] - Nettleton</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Unquestionable height/length immediately stands out from a physical frame standpoint which also shows a need to fill out and add weight. Quick footed at current weight with adequate overall athletic makeup. Hard to project twitch and agility when needed 75 pounds are added. Overall plays at good level with biggest critique being proneness to play overly vertical in pass protection. Finishes plays and gets to second and third levels when asked to. Physically easy projection to the tackle position at the next level. With added weight/strength is a very worthwhile prospect to track.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='648945' first='Ryan' last='Rainer'] - St. Joseph</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Adequate physical makeup for where he should be at this point in his career. Film shows majority of JR season at tackle but most likely will project at next level as a guard due to overall athleticism. Wins in one on one blocking assignments with strength/torque instead of athletic ability currently. A bit of a short stepper when asked to move up field. Plays with good motor and understanding of job and requirement. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='920475' first='Zaylin' last='Dedeaux'] - Ocean Springs</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Everything about his frame and physical makeup says D1 prospect and only is going to get better moving into his senior year. Plays a little bit high-cut but is not limited athletically by it. Does what asked on the edge at tackle whether it is straight drop or lateral requirements. Good strength with room to become dominant in that phase. Shows some agility and athleticism as plays progress. Consistent production in the largest classification in the state. Feels very undervalued at this time.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1127546' first='Jack' last='Fugette'] - Lake Cormorant</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>On the shorter frame side of the guys we've discussed today but not by much. Body build wise more than projects forward. Shows some quickness for a lineman with some twitch to it. Completes plays to the whistle and finishes blocks. Not the strongest or most athletic but gets job done in both phases. Feels like a guard projection looking into the future with biggest area of growth on the sheer strength side of things. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
