Expert Analysis
Scott Burgess | Prep Redzone Scout
Rios is a PRZ Illinois favorite. He has landed offers from UMass, Cornell, Akron, San Diego State, Western Illinois, and Western Kentucky. We truly believe he is a legit P4 offensive lineman with his athleticism and elite pass protection ability. At that level we can definitely see him kicking inside to guard where he would be a mobile and athletic interior offensive lineman with all conference pass pro upside!

Rios is one of the best tackles in the class. The 6’5″ 290 pound right tackle started on a state title team as a sophomore. Wide body and excellent footwork. Big time in pass protection with his typewriter feet, mirroring, and how light he plays for his size. Great technique. Has the size and length to be a mauler in the run game as well. Chance to be a complete tackle.

has been busy this offseason with his recruiting, drawing increased attention from college programs. He recently picked up his first offer and is expected to receive many more as the process unfolds. At 6’5″, Rios is a big and athletic offensive tackle who moves exceptionally well for his size, making him a dominant force in both the run and passing game. His combination of size, footwork, and strength allows him to control defenders at the point of attack and create lanes for his offense.
