Texas A&M’s offensive identity isn’t confusing; no matter how Aggie fans feel about OC Collin Klein, who will enter his second season with the program, the offensive line play is central to any success, especially from a physicality standpoint.
In the Aggies’ 8th-ranked 2025 recruiting class, coach Mike Elko and O-line coach Adam Cushing landed six offensive line signees, led by future star left tackle, five-star prospect Lamont Rogers, and rising four-star guard Nelson McGuire. However, Elko and Cushing want to add more beef to the line in the 2026 cycle.
This week, Cushing took a trip to Florida to visit 2026 four-star offensive lineman Canon Pickett, one of the rising interior O-linemen in the cycle. While Miami is a current favorite to land Pickett’s commitment, the Aggies have made him a priority moving forward.
Over his last two high school seasons, Pickett has started at left tackle but will likely move inside at guard at the next level, mainly due to his size, strength, and run-blocking prowess.
According to 247Sports, Pickett is currently positioned as the 45th-ranked IOL prospect in the class and the 64th-ranked prospect out of Florida.
