Oscar Rios

Downey (Calif.) has had a nice run on quarterbacks in recent years. Current Michigan State signal caller Aidan Chiles was the guy two years ago and was a national recruit and now junior quarterback Oscar Rios will be a three-year starter for the Vikings. At the same stage in their development, we actually think Rios is further along as a pure passer and he had a very strong sophomore year as a first time starter last season. He showed dual-threat ability and can stress a defense with his arm and his legs and his 73% completion percentage is about as elite as you can find at the HS level. He has a pure stroke, a quick release and throws with touch and accuracy down the field. He has a very projectable 6-3, 175 pound frame with plenty of room to add good weight and he’s easily among the top quarterbacks out West, regardless of class. He’s a trend up guy for us and is definitely in the four-star discussion.
