Five-Star: Top offensive linemen
It was a battle down to the wire for the offensive line MVP honors and if it had gone to Onwenu, it wouldn't have been a surprise. The Michigan commit has great strength and plays with terrific leverage, making him a difficult matchup for any type of interior lineman. It's crazy to think that Onwenu will only get stronger when he gets to college, especially if you're a defensive lineman that will have to battle him on Saturdays.

Wills made quite the statement by coming out and performing as the second-best offensive tackle at the event behind only Little. It didn't matter what type of defender Wills faced, he stepped up and won nearly every rep. His long arms and wide body make him tough to get around and some of the nation's top defensive linemen found that out the hard way. | |||

Davis came into the event ranked as the nation's No. 122 overall player, but not with the fanfare of some of the event's other highly ranked offensive linemen. Davis quickly introduced himself to some of the defensive linemen who weren't familiar with him, showing excellent toughness and flashing a mean streak during the one-on-ones. His initial punch ranked up there with some of the event's best as well. | |||

The Florida State commit worked out primarily at center and was very impressive during the morning session, stopping several highly ranked defensive linemen during one-on-ones. He struggled a little bit in the evening once some of the more savvy defenders realized Johnson wasn't used to snapping and started to play to his right side, but it didn't dampen an overall impressive weekend. | |||

Dowdell was the baby-faced assassin in Baltimore, taking on and defeating several defensive linemen. Dowdell's lower body strength is impressive and it allows him to hold his ground against bigger defensive linemen. Dowdell dueled with five-star defensive tackle Derrick Brown during the competition period and came away victorious several times as well. | |||

Davis is another young player who made a case to be one of the highest ranked players in his class after a strong weekend in Baltimore. Davis has terrific footwork, allowing him to keep up with older, more experienced players. Assuming Davis continues to develop his strength to match his excellent fundamentals, he will be one of the top players at his position in 2017. | |||
| 8 | OT |

The Clemson commit came into the event with a chip on his shoulder and was eager to prove that he belongs with the top offensive linemen in the country. He backed it up with excellent play, using his long arms and physicality to battle with the defensive linemen at the event. More importantly, Pollard didn't make the same mistake twice. He was a favorite of the event's coaches for his ability to learn and adjust. | |||
