James Neal III brings NFL-size and polished versatility to Iowa State’s line
Neal enters as a high-ceiling, pro-ready offensive tackle with elite size (6'6", 325) and standout power traits that show up in EA’s College Football 26 ratings: **91 strength**, **88 awareness**, and **91 toughness**. Iowa State used him as a versatile, durable piece in 2024, starting games at left tackle, left guard, and even tight end while helping fuel a record-setting offense and a 27-touchdown rushing season. The fit is clear: he projects as a steady, physical edge protector who can help in multiple spots, especially for teams that value intelligence, toughness, and flexibility in the trenches.
