Donnie Woods brings veteran-grade grit to Maryland’s offensive line
In the most recent available Maryland profile, Donnie Woods was described as a smart, consistent offensive lineman who started at left guard and handled shoulder issues while still earning the team’s top line grade in his season[2]. That kind of profile matters because guards win with reliability, leverage, and toughness—not flashy stats—and Woods’ appeal is the combination of football IQ, durability through pain, and dependable run-game blocking[2]. The catch: the public record here is older, so this is best read as a proven Terps trench worker rather than a current-season stat line.
