As a College Recruit

Athletic, physical offensive lineman with positional versatility. Measured in at 6-foot-4, 255 pounds with 33-inch arms prior to his senior season. Two-way standout working at offensive tackle and defensive end for his high school. Shows high-end movement skills. Easily works to the second level. Light on his feet and moves with fluidity. Operates with a high level of conditioning playing on both sides of the ball. Good enough of an athlete to play on defense in college, though his upside is highest on the offensive line. Plays with a high effort level and physicality. Works to finish blocks with authority, driving defensive linemen to the sideline at times. Shows strong flexibility and core strength, coming off the ball low and firing through his hips. More advanced as a run blocker than pass protector at this time, but has the athletic ability to pass block at a high level with further development. A strong wrestler, finishing as a state champion and state runner-up in back-to-back years. Also threw the shot put with a personal best of 40-8.5 feet as a sophomore. Faces a lower classification of competition at the high school level. Will need to continue adding good mass to his frame and lost weight from his sophomore to junior year. Younger for the cycle, with an August birthday. Could feasibly be a 2026 prospect from an age perspective. Could ultimately project at tackle or slide inside, but may project best inside given his skill set and dimensions. Skill set could particularly project well as a potential center.

Like Andre Dillard, Josh Petty is an athletic, developmental offensive lineman with upside. Both were quite lean as high school prospects. Dillard may be a touch longer than Petty.
