Pro Football Focus ranks two star Aggies as Top 50 college players
Texas A&M will enter the 2025 season stacked with talent at every position. Still, most importantly, the players at the top of the depth chart bring a ton of SEC snaps to the table, especially across the offensive line and at linebacker. In the trenches, left tackle Trey Zuhn III, left guard Chase Bisontis, center Mark Nabou, right guard Ar'maj Reed-Adams, and right tackle Dametreous Crownover all possess NFL potential. However, Adams represents the entire group due to his elite run-blocking skill set, paired with his violent demeanor and overall toughness, making him a likely first or second-round selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. This offseason, Adams has been praised by nearly every college football outlet, including Pro Football Focus. Paired with junior linebacker Taurean York, the former three-star recruiting prospects have surpassed their expectations and will be heavily relied upon throughout the 2025 season. This week, PFF released its "50 best players" list, comprised of the site's top-ranked college players heading into the fall. Unsurprisingly, Adams landed at No. 16 and is the fourth offensive lineman ranked below Clemson's Peter Woods (No. 3), Utah tackle Spencer Fano, and Florida center Jake Slaughter. "Reed-Adams dominated in his first year with the Aggies. The Kansas transfer ranked second in PFF overall grade, PFF run-blocking grade and PFF WAA among Power Four guards. He is a powerful player at 6-foot-5 and 330 pounds who can excel in any run-blocking scheme. Reed-Adams led all Power Four guards in gap PFF run-blocking grade and ranked fourth in zone PFF run-blocking grade this past season." Linebacker Taurean York is regarded as the best or second-best prospect at the position behind former Texas A&M commit Anthony Hill Jr., who has since thrived during his last two seasons with the Longhorns. York's instincts and elite run-stopping ability should result in his best season yet as he continues to improve in coverage. Just a three-star recruit, York hasn't let his recruiting profile dictate his college career. He has been a starter in each of his first two college seasons and leads all returning Power Four linebackers with 59 run-defense stops since 2023. His 122 plays with first contact on ball carriers are tied for fourth in the Power Four. York has a stocky build at 6 feet and 235 pounds, and he is an excellent tackler. In the upcoming College Football 26 video game, Adams possesses the highest rating on the team (93), with York tied for third (90).

'..anything can change' Texas A&M still in the thick of 2026 4-star Edge's recuitment
Texas A&M's 2026 edge class is in great shape with commitments from four-stars Jordan Carter and Samu Moala, and five-star Tristian Givens, while five-star Anthony "Tank" Jones recently included the Aggies in his final three program list. However, four-star edge rusher KJ Ford out of Duncanville (TX) also placed A&M in his final three program list, but the competition is fierce ahead of his announcement on Thursday, July 10. Right now, Ford is favored to land with the Gators, but with six days remaining, it's anyone's game, as Ohio State and the Aggies are still in the thick of his recruitment. However, Elko and defensive line coaches Spencer and Tony Jerod-Eddie will need to pull out all the stops, which will include a strong NIL pitch, similar to Texas Tech's landing of five-star tackle Felix Ojo over Texas on Friday. According to AggieYell recruiting insider Landyn Rosow, Florida will remain the favorite, but in today's college football landscape, anything is possible. "Texas A&M has been making Ford a priority over the past few years, but over the past few months I've got the sense that these two parties are heading different directions, and the Gators have been trending behind scenes. My On3 RPM has reflected that. Now, there are still eight days until he makes his decision, and with how college football is, anything can change." Ford has been one of the most productive defenders in Texas over the past two seasons, racking up 57 tackles, seven sacks, 16 tackles for loss, and 15 hurries during his 2024 junior season. Staying with Rosow's assessment, 247Sports' Mike Roach still believes that Texas A&M and Ohio State could be significant factors in the final days, given each program's recruiting momentum this summer. According to 247Sports, Ford is currently positioned as the 98th-ranked prospect in the 2026 class, the 11th-ranked edge, and the 16th-ranked prospect in Texas.

Nebraska commit named top high school quarterback
A future Nebraska quarterback has been one of Illinois' top high school quarterbacks. Class of 2027 commit Trae Taylor is one of the most sought-after players at his position, according to the Daily Herald. Taylor is entering his junior season at Carmel Catholic High School. He is the seventh overall quarterback in the 2027 class and the fourth overall player in his class from the state of Illinois, according to the 247Sports composite rankings. "What more can we say about the player at the top of the state's Class of 2027 rankings and near the top nationwide? After the hype that's built this offseason, Taylor (6-3, 180) and the Corsairs will draw crowds just to see him play. A whirlwind recruiting process ended in May when Taylor chose Nebraska over Illinois, LSU and Texas A&M." Last season, he threw for 3,061 yards, 20 touchdowns, and seven interceptions, per statistics from MaxPreps. He also carried the football 41 times for 342 yards and four touchdowns while leading Carmel Catholic High School to a 4-7 record.
