Vikings Draft Ohio State Offensive Lineman Donovan Jackson with 24th Pick of 2025

Brooks wrote Jackson “mauls defenders with a violent style that meshes with a power-based offensive attack.”

“As a large blocker with nimble feet, the Ohio State product is a Day 1 starter with Pro Bowl-caliber tools,” Brooks added.

NFL Media’s Daniel Jeremiah ranked Jackson as his No. 41 overall prospect in this year’s field.

Jeremiah wrote Jackson “has ideal size, strength and bend as an interior offensive lineman” and envisions him as a “top-tier guard.”

“In the pass game, he sets with a firm anchor, bends his knees and stays attached. He can slide and redirect smoothly,” Jeremiah wrote. “He is keenly aware on twists and stunts. In the run game, he creates movement on down blocks. He has the quickness and athleticism to kick out defenders on outside pulls. He has enough foot speed to reach and seal on the back side. His overall hand placement is excellent in both the run and pass game.”
