Easton McCullen Easton McCullen 6'2" | 295 lbs | OL Union Pines | 2028 State NC – OL | Union Pines | C/O 2028 entered the showcase as the #14 ranked offensive lineman in the Class of 2028 and looked the part. McCullen is a big-bodied lineman with huge arms and a strong frame that immediately stands out. While the camp format didn’t fully allow him to showcase his run-blocking ability, his film clearly shows how effective he can be in the ground game. During drills, McCullen displayed strong coordination, consistently keeping his hands and feet working together while maintaining balance and control through contact. His size, technique, and upside make him one of the more promising young linemen in the class.

McCullen has been relying on excellent play strength to win against bigger defenders, but he’s put in the work to add weight, and we’d expect him to get stronger this offseason in Union Pines’ excellent strength program. He took a step forward this season while playing both guard and tackle. We think he fits best on the inside, and we’re excited to dive into his tape at the guard position.

McCullen has gotten better and better as he’s grown. The offseason weight room work paid off as he’s stronger and more agile as a sophomore. He’s always been aggressive, but the added strength has helped turn that into spurts of dominance. He’s playing a lot of right tackle, but probably projects best as a guard. We love the upside, and we love the tape we’re seeing from him.

We typically don’t rank players without seeing much film, but the news coming out of Union Pines in regards to his ability and potential was too good to ignore. McCullen is an extremely strong lineman with great footwork and lateral quickness. He’s already over 420 pounds on his max squat and is pushing 4.8 on his short shuttle, a testament to his strength and quickness.
