6’4, 260 pounds. 4.18 GPA. Ranked the number one OL among 2028s in Pennsylvania. Is a three-sport athlete. Was a two-way starter for Kiski Area, yet his next-level projection lands him as one of the best young tackle prospects in PA. 8 TFLs and 2 sacks is nothing to laugh at, I as an evaluator appreciate his efforts on both sides of the ball.

Anderson carries tape a tier above the rest of the freshman OL. Anderson’s tape has him looking better than some upperclassmen I have ranked high. Up 10 pounds from his freshman playing weight, Anderson quickly shows he can be an impact blocker stationed at either left or right tackle, while also proving valuable as a pass protector and run blocker. Can’t put into words how valuable these reps are for a young tackle. Experience with both sides of the ball, both tackle spots, as well as both offensive schemes (pass/run) likely has Anderson ahead of the curve. Awesome hand-shooter, great placement too. Can lock out his elbows and drive kids into the dirt, has a mean temperament that many Power Four coaches demand out of their bookend tackles. Weight and how he carries said weight will ultimately define his positional fate, yet I’m enamored with his projection to left tackle at the next level.
