Douglas Utu

Utu is one of the more accomplished high school lineman in the ’25 class. He’ll be a four-year starter for one of the nation’s top high school programs and has played both guard and tackle for the Gaels. He looks like a prototype right tackle at the next level although he could easily slide inside and play guard as well if needed. He does have tackle feet and a prototype frame, pushing 6-6 and 300 pounds with plenty of length. He’s technically sound with good feet and balance, moves well laterally and is equally strong as a run blocker and pass protector. He’s a physical player, strong at the point of attack and is a finisher. He’s a natural bender with a strong punch. He has the quickness to recover against speed rushers and the strength to hold his ground against the bull rushers. He’s plenty aggressive as well and has the nastiness needed to excel in the trenches. He has the talent to play for any program in the country and has a definite NFL upside to him as well.
