Demetri Manning brings massive frame and run-game grit to Oregon’s interior OL battle
In the 2025 season, Demetri Manning appeared in one game for Oregon and projects as a powerful, wide-bodied interior lineman with real run-blocking juice, notable length, and the kind of size that pops off the screen at 6-foot-6 and 345 pounds. Scouts have consistently praised his lower-half strength, nastiness, and fit as a guard after playing tackle in high school, while 247Sports’ 2026 redshirt review said he’s more likely to develop into a reserve than an immediate starter. He’s a good fit if you want a mauler with upside; less so if you need polished pass-pro consistency right away.
