Draft Profile: Bio
Peak became a two-year starter at NC State, flipping from right tackle to the blind side and logging more than 2,200 college snaps as one of the ACC's more athletic protectors.He anchored the Wolfpack line in 2025, his pass protection among the best in the class, though his run blocking and anchor lagged the pass sets.
One of the most coveted tackles in the transfer portal, he chose South Carolina over Alabama and Ole Miss for 2026, stepping into the Gamecocks' offensive line and an SEC strength program.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Outlier movement skills for the position; made a national list of college football's best athletes.
- Pass protection is the strength of his game, with shutout tape against Georgia Tech and Florida State.
- Started every game for two straight seasons, flipping from right tackle to left without a hiccup.
- Recovery quickness erases early losses; redirects and re-anchors against counters better than most college tackles.
- Honored as All-ACC honorable mention while protecting a young quarterback's blind side.
- Climbs to the second level smoothly and tracks moving targets in space.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Light frame by NFL tackle standards; bigger ends set a hard edge against him.
- Pittsburgh outmuscled him at the point of attack; his run game trails his pass protection.
- Miami's speed-to-power broke his anchor repeatedly in his roughest pass-protection outing.
- Eight penalties in 2025 reflect grabby hands when his frame gets out-leveraged.
Scouting Report: Summary
Peak is a rare mover for the position, light on his feet on every pull, climb and recovery rep, a two-year starter who flipped from right tackle to the blind side and earns his money in pass protection. However, he is light for the position, Miami's speed-to-power broke his anchor repeatedly, his run game trails his protection, and grabby hands show up when his frame gets out-leveraged.Overall, Peak is an ascending, athletic tackle still learning to refine his talent on a consistent basis, but a year in an SEC strength program at South Carolina attacks the one flaw directly. He projects as a developmental starter, with the ceiling of a starting tackle and the floor of a swing tackle while he fills out.
