Expert Analysis
Michael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Reid is a high-motor guy who is explosive out of his stance when blocking down and pulls a ton in West Covina’s offense. He’s a solid athlete who pulls well and can block in the open field. In pass protection, he picks up blitzes well and can redirect defenders with his hands. Reid needs to keep adding some size but the motor and athleticism are there. He recently visited Utah Tech.

Impressive skillset for 6’2” 255 lb. interior OL prospect. Strong and athletic frame with the growth potential to add length and mass. He’s a force that can dominate the LOS with his combination of movement skills, footwork, and finishing ability. Violent at the POA he accelerates through with good leverage and aggression to deliver heavy contact. Plus initial quickness to be fast off the ball and has the foot speed and athleticism to get to the spot and gain positional leverage. Demonstrates the ability to climb to the second level or pull to get out in front and be an effective blocker in space. Good hand placement and usage to control defenders and sustain his block throughout the play. Voted to the Cal High All State freshman team and should see D1 college attention as develops and grows.

Read EvaluationPaul Gregorian | Prep Redzone Scout
Reid has the body type and frame to be able to continue packing on weight over the course of his prep career, and has some nice upside because of it. He checks into our rankings inside the top ten across the offensive line and sneaks in just inside the top sixty overall. On tape, he shows that he is a punishing run blocker that gets immediate vertical push in the run game, is a true puncher with inside hands and can finish blocks downfield consistently. He plays way above his age and is a powerful kid in the box with a strong lower half and does a nice job at staying underneath defenders and winning with leverage and a solid base at the POA. Reid has some of the more impressive interior OL film in his class across the state, and will be a seasoned veteran by the time his career is over and will provide plus athleticism at the collegiate level at guard or center.
