If Notre Dame is looking for its next All-American offensive lineman, it may have to search no further than Broken Arrow, Okla., home of four-star guard Andrew Raym.

Watching Raym’s highlight film is like watching an NFL All-Pro dominate lesser opponents. He just looks so dominant against every opponents he faces — and yes, I know it’s a compilation of his best plays, but he is an absolute pancake machine.

There are times, however, in pass protection where the opposing defensive end — when he’s playing tackle — gets the first step on him that he gets a little handsy and may get away with pulling the defender down. It may look like a clean block in real time, but he needs to clean up his pass protection on quick defenders with strong first moves.

In the run game, he’s a machine. He’s a battering ram for ball-carriers, clearing lanes and sometimes taking out 2-3 defenders on a single play.

Notre Dame would love this kid.

Raym is ranked the No. 56 player in the class and the third-best offensive guard, according to 247Sports.
