Prospect: OL Aaron Gunn
Projected Position: Guard
Status: SI All-American Candidate

Frame: Big, with adequate length. Notably broad shoulders and chest. Short arms for height. Round midsection. Thick, developing thighs and trunk. Plenty of room for additional mass and muscle; focus will be recomposition.

Athleticism: Very strong. Overwhelms defenders with raw power at point of attack. Adequate short-area quickness. Limited speed in open space, but surprising change-of-direction ability.

No purchase necessary. 50 U.S./D.C. 18+. Entry opens 3PM ET Dec 6, 2026 and closes 8PM ET Dec 18, 2026. Void where prohibited.See for complete details. The College Football Playoff (CFP) is not a sponsor or administrator of this contest.

Instincts: Physical and aggressive. Goal in run game is to send every defender to the ground. Very effective punch at POA when it lands; prone to hip-tossing defenders otherwise. Comfortable pulling, hitting moving targets on second level. Tendency to bail early in pass protection.

Polish: Good footwork in run game when engaged with defender. Tendency to get upright in open space, pass protection. Must work on hip, leg drive; over-reliant on punch. Kick slide needs to be developed, honed.

Bottom Line: Gunn is a big-framed interior lineman with raw power and solid overall movement skills. Needs to get stronger and reorient mass before seeing field consistently. Projects as multi-year starter at guard for Louisville.
