Duckworth’s sophomore and junior film has been mostly on the OL, but I still can’t help but think he projects out long-term as a defender. When you watch him work, he moves well in space and can flatten defenders in space. If you translate his athleticism, violence, and traits to the defensive line, I think you could get the most out of him as a prospect.

A strong, reliable interior offensive lineman who shined at the center position last year, Duckworth brings a stout 6-foot-3 265-pound frame with impressive lower-body strength. He plays with good leverage, good footwork, and the ability to open up running lanes in the trenches. He’s one of the top returning centers in North Georgia and one of the state’s best in the 2027 class. He added a new offer from UNLV and more could be coming soon. Look for him to be added to the next 2027 Prep Redzone update.
