Expert Analysis
Jordan Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
Armenta moves from the watchlist to #30 overall and is the third ranked offensive linemen in the 2029 class. Physically imposing he can play both OT or on the interior with a college ready frame at 6’5” 315 lbs. and verified early P4 attention. Generates overwhelming power at the POA, consistently displacing defenders and creating movement in the run game. Shows advanced hand usage for his age, striking with placement and strength to keep separation and control reps. Flashes a strong anchor in pass protection with the ability to absorb contact and maintain a clean pocket. Performed well playing as a freshman for one of the top programs in the country. All signs point to him being one of the top OL prospects in the class.

Read EvaluationMichael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Armenta was a starter for Mater Dei as a freshman at right tackle and played some guard as well.
In pass protection, he does a great job getting his arms extended on the defensive lineman and using his feet to mirror the defender on inside pass rush moves. Good motor as a run blocker with a solid first step and can drive 3-techniques down the field. I like him better as a tackle than as a guard. Armenta really impressed me against Santa Margarita when he held his own against a big defensive end who is playing at USC next year.
He has offers from Oregon, Arizona and Oregon State.
