*No Particular Order
Liam Cassidy Liam Cassidy 6'5" | 300 lbs | DL Jesuit | 2024 State OR 6-5 300 DT 24′ Jesuit- Cassidy garnered 1st team all-conference accolades on the defensive side of the ball and possesses impressive size and mobility. That said it will be interesting to see what they do with him on O, led by one of the region’s top offensive line coaches in John Andreas.
Devin Brooks Devin Brooks 6'4" | 290 lbs | OL Clackamas | 2024 State OR 6-4 300 T 24′ Clackamas- I could see Brooks being a double digit D1 offer athlete and the top line recruit in Oregon. His film speaks for itself as he had a phenomenal Sophomore season earning 1st team all Mt Hood accolades.
Jace Eveland Jace Eveland 6'7" | 300 lbs | OL Redmond | 2025 State OR 6-7 315 T 25′ Putnam- You can’t teach the size as Eveland has a lot to work with from a physicality standpoint (82″ Wingspan, 10.5″ Hands). He racked up 1st team all-conference honors as a freshman and will be expected to dominate 5A competition if projecting to a high D1 level.
Suliasi Laulaupeaalu Suliasi Laulaupeaalu 6'4" | 335 lbs | OL Sherwood | 2025 State OR G/DT 6-3 335 25′ Sherwood- Easily one of the most impressive freshman in the Pacific Northwest, earning honorable mention all-conference honors offensively. Projection and what side of the ball he plays on will depend on continued growth.
Terrell Kim Terrell Kim 6'4" | 315 lbs | OL North Medford | 2024 State OR 6-4 315 T 24′ North Medford- Kim is an intriguing prospect, starting as a freshman and earning 1st team all-conference accolades as a Sophomore. He’s another kid who could write his own ticket if he can continue to impress from a mobility standpoint.
Ryder Swanson Ryder Swanson 6'1" | 220 lbs | DL Oregon City | 2024 State OR 6-3 220 DE 24′ Oregon City- One of Oregon’s breakout Sophomore’s, earning 2nd team all TRL honors in the state’s toughest conference. He comes hard off the edge and impresses with his overall quickness and tenacity.
Gus Donnerberg Gus Donnerberg 6'4" | 220 lbs | TE West Linn | 2024 State OR 6-4 200 DE/OLB 24′ West Linn- Donnerberg can literally play 4-5 spots on the field, so you don’t know if he will end up on offense or as a DE/ OLB. That said as he has D1 genes and the frame to add substantial size if he wants to. Expect him to be a nightmare to try and defend, exposing O lineman with his overall athleticsm.
Zachary Davis Zachary Davis 6'1" | 225 lbs | LB Central Catholic | 2025 State OR 6-1 225 DE/OLB 25′ Central Catholic- Davis was an Adidas Freshman All American and has the potential to be a high-profile recruit, playing for one of the top HS programs in the West. Positionally he can play the DE spot but may project as more of an outside backer.
Stephen Del Giudice Stephen Del Giudice 6'5" | 240 lbs | OL West Linn | 2024 State OR 6-4 250 T 24′ Grant- Not a lot people know about Del Giudice yet but they will. He started and did well as a freshman while racking up 1st team all PIL honors on both sides of the football as a Sophomore.
Baron Naone Baron Naone 6'4" | 225 lbs | TE West Linn | 2025 State OR 6-4 205 DE/OLB 25′ West Linn- Much like his teammate Donnerberg, he is ridiculously athletic with D1 genes, and can play a handful of different positions on the field. Naone is a 3-sport athlete and could very well end up on the offensive side of the ball.
Sam Keen Sam Keen 6'3" | 290 lbs | OL Springfield | 2024 State OR 6-4 270 T 24′ Marist- Keen started on both sides of the football as a Sophomore, impressing on D with his mobility while projecting on offense. Regardless of classification he was one of the more dominant 24’s in Oregon.
Patrick Wooley Patrick Wooley 6'5" | 350 lbs | DL Liberty | 2024 State OR 6-5 345 DT 24′ Liberty- To say that Wooley plugs up the middle would be an understatement. He had an outstanding Sophomore season, earning 1st team all-conference honors. Expect him to have an equally impressive Junior campaign as the Falcons return a talented group.
