Dan Lanning was determined to stock up on big offensive linemen when he got to Oregon. Really big offensive linemen.
Fox Crader, at 6-foot-6 and 285 pounds, certainly fits that mold.
The four-star recruit out of Vancouver, Wash. signed with the Ducks. According to 247Sports, Crader is the No. 19 offensive lineman in the country and the No. 3 player out of Washington, again taking one of that state’s best players away from the Washington Huskies.
Big addition up front.

According to national recruiting Brandon Huffman from 247Sports, “Crader is a player who made a big jump from his sophomore season to his junior campaign,” he said. “With a basketball background, he’s got the length, feet, and frame you’d like in a tackle and probably adds another 20-30 pounds in college with relative ease to fill out that frame. Crader plays left tackle and shows good flexibility, a natural knee bend, change of direction and body control.”
Crader turned down offers from Oklahoma, USC, Georgia and LSU in order to come to Eugene.
Here is a look at Crader’s highlights:
