Parker Maloney brings rare length and freshman upside to South Dakota’s offensive line
In the 2026 season, Parker Maloney is a 6-foot-7, 260-pound freshman offensive lineman for South Dakota whose size, frame, and multi-sport athletic background give him a high-ceiling profile. He arrived as a decorated high school lineman from Madelia, Minnesota, where he earned all-district honors and reportedly anchored a run-heavy team without allowing a sack, which hints at toughness and polish. He looks like a developmental OL fit: long, physical, and still adding strength. If your team wants a project with upside and plenty of room to grow, this kid is worth a hard look.
