SDSU's Rock-Solid OL Anchor with Pro Potential
Damian Shankle, San Diego State Aztecs' starting offensive lineman, has been a cornerstone of the Aztecs' top-25 rush attack, allowing just 0.8 sacks per game in the 2025 season while grading out at 82.5 in PFF run-blocking—elite among MWC linemen. His differentiator? Explosive athleticism (5.2s 40-yard dash at SDSU pro day) paired with mean-streak tenacity, thriving in high-intensity trenches without injury setbacks. Scouts rave he's NFL-ready Day 3 pick; perfect fit for gap-scheme teams needing durable, aggressive road-graders who elevate the line.
