Miami right tackle Francis Mauigoa has already built a name for himself as one of the most physically gifted linemen in college football, and now he’s backing it up with dominant, consistent play. The 6-foot-6, 315-pound junior is widely viewed by NFL scouts as the No. 2 offensive lineman in the nation, and he’s doing everything he can to close that gap.
Mauigoa brings an elite blend of size, strength, and athleticism, giving Miami a true force on the right side of the line. As a pass blocker, he’s powerful, technically sound, and rarely caught off balance. His anchor is elite for a player his age, and his ability to redirect pass rushers shows just how naturally gifted he is.
But Mauigoa isn’t just a pass protector; he’s a mauler in the run game. He plays with violence, power, and great leverage, consistently driving defenders off the ball. His versatility makes him scheme-friendly for nearly every NFL offense, and his durability and competitive fire have only strengthened his stock.
What scouts love most is his relentlessness. He plays every snap with intensity, finishes blocks with authority, and brings a clear leadership presence to the Hurricanes’ offensive line. Miami’s offense has taken major strides, and Mauigoa’s development is a huge part of the reason why.
With his combination of tools, technique, and toughness, Mauigoa looks every bit like a future first-round pick—and one of the safest bets in the upcoming draft.
