2027 South Charleston OL Morgan Watts Morgan Watts 6'5" | 260 lbs | OL South Charleston | 2027 State WV stands out for how well he moves at his size, and it starts with his footwork. At 6’5 260, Watts shows light, controlled feet in pass protection, consistently staying in front of his man and matching movement off the edge. Watts slides cleanly, doesn’t cross himself up, and keeps his base under him, which allows him to mirror rushers and stay in control of reps. That movement ability gives Watts a strong foundation in pass pro and is a big reason why his upside continues to trend upward as he adds more strength to his frame.

This is largely a projection ranking for 2027 South Charleston OL Morgan Watts Morgan Watts 6'5" | 260 lbs | OL South Charleston | 2027 State WV even more so than other young prospects without much game film. We got to see just three highlights of Watts from his freshman season with the Black Eagles, but you don’t have to be a football expert to know 6’6 linemen don’t grow on trees, especially at his age. Watts also appeared to move well in those few clips and looks to have the combination of size and athleticism to develop into a top OL prospect in this class.
Where Watts finishes in the rankings by the time he’s a senior will depend on future film, but the odds of him having a high ceiling are good.
