Offered by: Black Hills State

I swear Beckett was my “secret” in this 2027 South Dakota rankings update, and now the offers have started coming as Black Hills State is now Beckett’s fourth offer since February. The 6’5 275 pounder, has such natural balance as a pull-blocker in the Quarriers offense and is one of the best offensive line that 11A has to offer. Another area where Beckett excels is with his pad-level as it’s heard to see where this young man misses a beat as a run-blocker. I surely think that Beckett could get more attention come this spring and fall at the D1 and 2 levels as far as offers.

The highest debut in our 2027 offensive linemen rankings comes in at OL5 in Dell Rapids Beckett Nelson Beckett Nelson 6'5" | 270 lbs | OL Dell Rapids | 2027 State SD . He was our highest debut for a reason, as his juinor tape really moved the needle in the 2025 season showing off how well-rounded he is as a left guard. As a 6’5 270 pounder, Beckett shows plenty of quick fluidity out of his stance and this gets seen on a consistent basis the more tape you watch on Beckett. If you are a like me and look for offensive linemen that block till that whistle blows, you get that with Beckett as this young man might be the most persistent finisher within this top 5. There surely is a clear path for Beckett to move up in this top 5, without a doubt.

One of the biggest jumpers you will see upcoming in this 2027 South Dakota update will come from Dell Rapids offensive linemen Beckett Nelson Beckett Nelson 6'5" | 270 lbs | OL Dell Rapids | 2027 State SD . The 6’5 275 pounder for the Quarriers, is more fiery with his agility and foot speed out of his stance than you would expect at that size as he jumped off quickly in the most recent eval I got when going thru our 2027 rankings. He also is a offensive guard that is another sure finisher out of this list from tonight at the point of attack. He has a good amount of D2 and NAIA interest, but man I think I would give Beckett a D1 grade out of this stacked OL class South Dakota has.
