Perhaps the biggest darkhorse/unknown/potential stock riser in the entire 2027 rankings right now, Sycamore’s monster 6’5, 230 lb. DE Aiden Hager Aiden Hager 6'5" | 240 lbs | DL Sycamore | 2027 State IL has just enough film from 2023 to really get the imagination going. Sycamore is currently home to one of the best LBs in the Midwest in 2025 Iowa Hawkeyes commit Burke Gautcher Burke Gautcher 6'2" | 200 lbs | LB Sycamore | 2025 State IL , and the Spartans are set to continue the college coaching attention with their rising sophomore DL prospect, if the size and athletic flashes on film hold true.

Only one game of tape, and in the non-varsity reps, Hager looks like you’d hope a 6’5, 230 lb. JV competitor would look like, as he was physically dominant and overwhelmingly large at the point of attack and basically did whatever he wanted in terms of getting off blocks and disrupting his opponents run and pass game. He looks flexible and explosive in his stance, can disrupt offensives behind the LOS and has the speed to track down RBs from the backside of the LOS, and pushes off blocks like he’s pushing a shopping cart. Only one game of tape as mentioned, but if the flashes hold true, Hager will be rapidly rising up the rankings once more info becomes available.
