Expert Analysis
Keaton Donnelly | Prep Redzone Scout
Being already 6’5 265 Shakir is hard to miss being around other 2028 prospects even at a game like this. Although he was the biggest player on the field I quickly learned he is not big for no reason he’s a dawg as an Offensive Tackle. You will see him signing to a D1 school in 4 years as he continues to get better.
- Huge kid and still very athletic
- future D1 offensive tackle. Already has the size to do so.
- can move very well for his size

Shakir was the first kid I noticed when practice #1 started for the East. Being already 6’5 265 he’s hard to miss being around other 2028 prospects. Although he was the biggest player on the field I quickly learned he is not big for no reason he’s a dawg as an Offensive Tackle. One of a few guys from Maryland selected for the game, he impressed me with his size and athletic ability being so young with that frame.

– Played for the 13U Maryland Heat this year.
– Absolutely enormous for a 2028 prospect with freakishly long arms, listing himself at 6-foot-5.
– Another young lineman with an ideal frame to be molded into a future D1 Offensive Tackle.

If you play for the Maryland Heat football organization, there’s a good chance you’re one of the better players in the greater DMV area. That’s exactly what I see when looking at Shakir. The 6-foot-2, 245-pound seventh-grader plays Tackle for the Heat and has all the makings of a future star at the position. In several clips I’ve seen, he climbs to the next level to seal off Linebacker’s better than most High School Offensive Lineman do. He’s unassumingly quick for a big (young) man, which is another trait most next-level linemen possess. Needs to work a bit on keeping his pad level lower as he progresses through level of football, but he’s got plenty of time to fix the little things. He’s another young man that should have nearly every head coach in the WCAC hoping he chooses their school.
