In October, the LSU football staff pulled off one of the biggest flips in the 2024 recruiting cycle when Texas A&M five-star offensive line commitment Weston Davis flipped his commitment from the Aggies to the Tigers.

Now, the Beaumont (Tex.) United standout is one of three five-stars to land at LSU, according to On3’s final On300 rankings released Monday. Davis ranks as the No. 23 overall prospect in America, the 4th-ranked offensive tackle and No. 5 prospect in Texas.

“Weston Davis is one of the most physically gifted offensive tackles in the 2024 cycle. He’s one we have been high on at On3 for the entirety of the process,” On3 national director of scouting Charles Power said. “We’ve liked what we have seen from him. He added a fifth star in our most recent rankings update. I think Weston is a guy who is really just scratching the surface of his potential. He has an extremely high ceiling. He is 6-foot-6, 280 pounds with some of the longest arms among the offensive tackles in the 2024 cycle. His arm length is well over 35-inches.”

Weston Davis scouting report

Light-footed, flexible offensive tackle with one of the higher developmental upsides among offensive linemen in the 2024 cycle. Measured in at over to 6-foot-5, and north of 280 pounds in the spring prior to his senior year. Has plus length for the position with arms that have measured over 35-inches. Was a basketball-first athlete prior to taking up football in high school.

Still relatively new to the game, but has shown considerable upside. Has high-end movement skills. Easily works to the second level as a run blocker and has burst and bounce in his movements. Shows budding physicality as a run blocker and works to finish blocks. Has the natural skill set to develop into a gifted pass protector.

Will need time to gain strength and mass along with honing his technique. Should benefit from a redshirt year and time in a college strength program. Doubles as a contributor on Beaumont United’s nationally-ranked basketball team.
