Expert Analysis
Brendan Mankarious | Prep Redzone Scout
Yes, it is cheap-and-easy to like the tape of the state’s best defensive lineman, who is also ranked third in his class. However, I absolutely love Aidan O’Neil Aidan O’Neil 6'4" | 220 lbs | DL Don Bosco Prep | 2027 State NJ ‘s film. I am not sure there is anything O’Neil cannot do on the defensive line. With the versatility to play nose, 3-tech, or edge in either an even or an odd front, he is a dangerous prospect who walks back opponents to establish a new line of scrimmage and squeezes with hands on religiously to force bounces. Moreover, O’Neil has the athleticism to spy opposing quarterbacks and the speed to beat them to the edge. These same traits allow him to execute line stunts flawlessly. Beyond the outstanding traits described above, what makes O’Neil a defensive line coach’s dream is that he plays with outstanding half-gap control.

Versatility, physicality, and a knock-back mentality are the three biggest characteristics to describe Aidan O’Neil Aidan O’Neil 6'4" | 220 lbs | DL Don Bosco Prep | 2027 State NJ ‘s game. O’Neil can play both interior line and off the edge, showcasing that he has the ability to walk linemen backwards to establish a new line of scrimmage. Additionally, like a textbook example we see him get hands on down blocks and squeeze with authority. His get off is solid; however, he is exceptional at executing line stunts and has a nasty long arm he deploys. Inside or out, even or odd front, O’Neil is a monster in the trenches.
