2017 Projection

Like most offensive linemen, Stueber will likely need a redshirt season as a freshman. He’s got a solid frame to start with but needs to add some bulk and some strength in order to compete in the Big Ten. His athleticism coupled with the unproven offensive linemen already at Michigan could give Stueber a chance to challenge for a spot on the two deep, but he likely won’t be called upon to play in 2017.

They Said It

Rivals.com Mid-Atlantic Recruiting Analyst Adam Friedman: "Stueber is a huge kid. He’s 6-6 and over 300 pounds, so he’s got that size and an excellent frame. Even though he’s over 300 pounds, he doesn’t have much bad weight on him. There’s still a lot of room left to fill out his frame so you really like that on the hoof. You can see that he moves really well. He’s a great bender and is a very athletic guy for how big he is. He’s a very good run blocker because he also does a good job level keeping his balance when moving forward. Being 6-6, he has a great wingspan and that’s helped him a lot in pass protection. He needs more experience to work out all of the kinks as a pass blocker. I see him as more of a right tackle than a left tackle right now, but he moves really well and could develop into a left-side guy.

Darien Head Coach Rob Trifone: “As Andrew knows, we take pride in our offensive and defensive lines, and he’s a leader on both sides. Not just because of his size but because he is a great leader. He’s a great young man and his work ethic is second to none. He’s got great feet — a kid his size with great feet, you can’t go wrong. He pulls well and pass blocks really well. He has very good technique but I do kid him that he plays too high sometimes — but, when you’re 6-6, it happens. He’s going to work his tail off at Michigan because that’s Andrew Stueber.”
