Coming out of 2022 5A state runner-up Peoria, 6’4, 300 lb. offensive lineman Jaquarius Green Jaquarius Green 6'4" | 385 lbs | OL Peoria | 2026 State IL is our #4 overall prospect and #1 offensive lineman in the inaugural 2026 PRzIL rankings update. The sizeable freshman opened a ton of holes for his productive Lions RB room last fall, and he’s set to be even more of a road grader this fall with a year in a high school weight room and conditioning program under his belt. Like all the #1 positional prospects right now, Green has some talented and top-tier peers nipping at his heels but has a good foundation of strength, technique, and experience after starting on Peoria’s OL all of 2022. Although he could benefit from a little more weight loss, the big fella is still balanced, quick, and can get out of his stance and move well laterally, which allows him to get out of his stance quickly and pull or trap effectively and impressively across or around the LOS. What’s more impressive is his explosiveness and strength at the point of attack, where he routinely sends opponents flying backward and onto their butts like they bounced off a medicine ball. He’s a battering ram at the contact point and is athletic enough to stay upright and on his feet through contact and looking for more action. Green is also experienced in pass pro and can successfully work laterally as well. Although he has to still work on developing his body, the important pieces are present and visible and he’s a beast for his age. Keep an eye on how this OL class keeps growing and changing going forward.
