Colton looks like a special talent in the offensive trenches. His frame holds his 6’4″ 285 lbs very easily with room to continue to bulk up and add power. That will be scary to see at the next level because he is already mauling dudes at the HS level. Colton is very explosive out of his stance and can deliver an effective initial punch and transition that burst into power to quickly get his opponent off balance and drive them off the ball. The sophomore is also very athletic, easily getting to level two and getting in position to wall off his opponent. The big man is also so impressive out in space on screens. He has great range/speed for an OL prospect. Being light on his feet comes in handy in the short area too where he can get leverage or wall off opponents quickly or mirror pass rushers. Colton is a name to know in the Class of 2026.
