Jayden McKinney Jayden McKinney 6'3" | 255 lbs | DL Winton Woods | 2028 State OH is a starting defensive lineman for Winton Woods. I really like McKinney, and despite holding just eight offers I would expect his recruiting to blow up in January when college coaches roll through the southwest Ohio powerhouse. He is a strong defensive tackle with a quick first step and a force against the run. With a thick upper and lower half and a 6-foot-3 frame, McKinney has plenty of room to add bulk and be a dominant run-plugging defensive tackle in major college football.

McKinney is a talented young defensive tackle. He has a great frame and wears his weight well. He finished the night with 2 sacks. He has an explosive get off and plays with great pad level. He has a strong bull rush. As Jayden continues to get bigger and stronger, he’s going to become a major problem for opposing offensive lines.

McKinney is an impressive young defensive lineman for the Warriors. At 6’3 255 Mckinney carries his weight well and has the room to continue to add good weight. When watching his film what I was immediately impressed with was his play strength and ability to anchor for a freshman. A lot of times that can be the last thing to come for young defensive linemen. McKinney plays with good pad level and uses his hands and sheds well. Jaden picked up his first D1 offer from Marshall in November.
