KEAGEN TROST

MISSOURI
Height: 6’4 5/8″
Weight: 311 lbs
Arm: 32 3/8″
Hand:
9 1/4″
Wing: 80 7/8″

PROSPECT ANALYSIS

Seventh-year senior with 42 starts between four different schools. Trost’s improvement from 2024 to 2025 was obvious on tape. Battles against Missouri’s Zion Young and Damon Wilson II got him game-ready to handle his work against good SEC competition. He has a broad, proportional build and plays with good body control/firmness through contact. Pro edge speed could push him inside to guard, where his tackle experience and ability to play in gap or zone scheme are differentiators. Position versatility, toughness and a ready-made frame give Trost a chance to eventually become a starter.

Strengths

Build is broad and solid with good lean mass on his frame.
Has strength/athleticism to play in all run-blocking schemes.
Leverages hand strikes and stays centered on the block.
Hand strength and upper-body power to maul if needed.
Climb is under control and ready for contact with linebackers.
Transitions from punch to grip for quicker rush control.
Improved hand usage helps firmness of his anchor.
Redirects weight to inside moves with adequate fluidity.

Weaknesses

Below-average ground gain with his first three pass slides.
Static, two-hand punch is ripe for swipes and counters.
Needs to keep weight back and guard against reaching/leaning.
Higher pad level could be a concern if he moves inside.
Inconsistent footwork to improve positioning in run game.

Trost is a guard. They have 2 guards who hit free agency after 2026. They can’t keep both.
