Expert Analysis
Mark Johnson | Prep Redzone Scout
Frequent visitors to the rankings and articles over the past year know that I am a big fan of the Wausau West OT. The 6’5″ 290 lbs senior is just barely tapping into his potential, and he has only played the position for two seasons. There is no arguing with the natural traits and gifts that he has shown on tape since starting on the OL. The run game is where the young man shines. Brandt gets to show off his special movement skills. The type of range that allows him to quickly and easily get to the second level to wall off LBs. Rice’s heavy hands and powerful lower body allow him to generate a lot of force and push in the trenches. He also plays with that nasty demeanor needed to dominate in the trenches and will finish opponents to the ground very chance. Lastly, Brandt is very good when pulling. He can get across the formation quickly, and can clear out a gap or lead through to land a second level block. Looking at his ovearll strengths, I believe his best home is at guard at the next level. I believe his next level home will also be at the D1 level.
