Today we take a look at some of the top offensive linemen in the transfer portal here in Texas. We have some prospects from the SEC and Big 12. Some of these guys were very highly rated coming out of high school and some have even had some impressive college careers to this point. Here are some of the top big guys on the offensive line in the portal and looking for a new place to call home.
Jacob Farrell (18) | 6’6″ 280 | OT | Noth Texas
Jacob was a three-star prospect coming out of Sulphur, OK. Jacob has a long frame and impressive build. He has long arms, long legs and was just bigger than everybody on the field in high school. He also played both ways on the defensive line and offensive line for his team showing off his athleticism in his speed either pursuing the ball carrier or blocking downfield at the next level. I loved this guy’s raw ability, size, and athleticism for being a big fella. He showed he can be a nasty blocker and plow people over in the run game. Would be a great addition

Will Farrar (17) | 6’5″ 290 | OT | Texas Tech
Will has tremendous size and a very solid build. He has a devastating first punch and can flatten defenders on the line. He’s got long arms and legs and can show off his ability to beat people off the ball and drive them into the ground. Excellent run-blocking ability, pass blocking could use a bit of improvement as far as footwork.

Kelton Hollins (16) | 6’3″ 300 | IOL | TCU
Kelton has had an impressive career so far for the horned frogs. 2019 he was a Big 12 champions for life representative and a Jason Witten Collegiate Man of the Year Award Semifinalist. 2020 first team academics all big 12. Kelton is a leader out there on that offensive line. He’s got the requisite height and size you’d usually see at the center position. Really a nasty blocker who can run block and pass block well. Other than being a really good human being, Hollins is an excellent football player and would be a great addition to any locker room.
I have decided to enter my name in the transfer portal in order to exhaust my last year of eligibility and to pursue a doctoral degree. #ble55ed ?? pic.twitter.com/7jK3juaaDD

Reece Jordan (17) | 6’3″ 275 | IOL | Texas State
Reece is from Boyd HS. Since 2017 Jordan has played in 33 games. Usually at the center position. Was mentioned before as offensive player of the week for Pro FB Focus. Very athletic at the center position and once he locks on to a defender isn’t letting go and driving them to the ground. He shows athleticism enough to block out in space very well.
Thomas Spann (19) | 6’5″ 310 | IOL | Texas A&M
I love this offensive linemen’s size and ability. Played with some of the best offensive linemen in the country last season and has received excellent coaching. This is one lineman who teams would love to have on their roster. Very versatile player that can play multiple positions on the line.
