Alex Walton is a rising, high-upside Dayton anchor on the offensive line
In the 2026 season, Dayton lists Alex Walton as a redshirt sophomore/junior-sized OL at 6'3", 311 pounds, with a background as a team captain and multi-sport wrestler who didn’t even start organized sports until high school—a pretty wild development arc for an FCS lineman[1][4][6]. He has no game stats to brag about yet, but that’s normal for an offensive lineman; the real hook is his growth profile, toughness, and coachable ceiling. If you want a developmental line piece with size, grit, and upside, Walton looks like a sensible fit[1][4][6].
