Jaiden is an OL prospect capable of playing anywhere along the line, but makes his home at OG. He stays in the top 10 once again and is the #1 IOL prospect in the rankings. He holds double digit offers and I expect that number to grow significantly before his senior year.

As an IOL, Jaiden has a great built and impressive arm length for the position. He plays with strength and power. Brings an attitude to his blocking, playing with some nasty and violence. Jaiden is also an excellent athlete for the position. Able to get out of his stance with pop and burst. A very proficient puller as well, Jaiden can skip pull, turn and go up field while running in his toes and coming with bad intentions. Jaiden is another player I have seen since his freshman year and he continues to dominate competition and impress on the field.

Jaiden Lindsay Jaiden Lindsay 6'4" | 280 lbs | OL Good Counsel | 2027 State MD ‘s highlights show a physical lineman with quick feet and a nasty finish. His power and mobility stand out immediately in his 2025 season highlights. 

Early in the tape, Lindsay pulls to the right on a run play. He gets out in space quickly, squares up the defender, and pancakes him. The next snap shows him blocking down on a defensive tackle. He takes control early, drives him to the ground, and helps open a lane for the running back.

In pass protection, Lindsay plays with aggression and balance. On a quick pass, he engages the defensive lineman and finishes him to the turf. On another rep, Lindsay chips the nose guard to help the center, knocks him off his feet, and keeps the pocket clean. He follows that with a strong mirroring rep, riding the defender laterally before pancaking him and giving the quarterback time to scramble.

Lindsay consistently shows heavy hands and finishing strength. He blocks down, controls defenders, and puts them on the ground. When asked to pull, Lindsay shows good footwork, hits his target with force, and clears space for the play to develop.

Overall, Lindsay projects as a physical, agile offensive lineman who plays with and edge and finishes blocks.  

Jaiden makes a move into the overall top 10 for the first time in the 2027 rankings and is the #2 overall OL and number #1 OL in the state of Maryland. A player I’ve followed since early in his freshman year, you could tell Jaiden had tons of potential from the start.

Standing a verified 6’3″+ with a 74″ wingspan, Jaiden passes the eye ball test. Able to play anywhere along the OL, he is best at OG with how good of an athlete he is for the position. He’s light on his feet and can run on his toes. Effective in the pull game, as well as being able to reach & combo block. Jaiden also shows well in pass sets uses his athleticism to get to his set quickly against fast pass rushers. With a nice punch & hand technique, Jaiden has the strength needed to bully defenders and put them in the dirt. Already holding a handful of Power 4 Offers, I expect those numbers to be in the double digits by the end of his junior season.

Another GC prospect who got limited play as a freshman but looks to cement himself as a top prospect in the area this fall. Jaiden slides in as the starting RT for Good Counsel and I was able to see him earlier this week in GC’s first scrimmage. He possesses nice size and build, and while playing RT this year I can see him being able to play anywhere along the OL. Athletic and light on his feet, Jaiden is able to handle himself against speed rushes in pass sets. He has a nice punch and hand technique, able to get into the defenders chest quickly and re-set his hands when needed. Jaiden shows good strength for his age as well. Able to anchor and sit stone-walling defenders in pass pro, as well as drive guys out of the play and bury them on run plays. Jaiden plays with some nasty and mean in his game which I love to see as well.

Jaiden currently holds two Power 4 offers and I expect plenty more to come his way after his fall. He will only become more dominant as he develops and gets stronger. Very deserving of being the #2 ranked OL prospect in his class and I can’t wait to see more of his play this year.
