Draft Profile: Bio
Jordan Seaton started for three varsity seasons at St. John's College in the nation's capital, earning MaxPreps first-team All-America honors each year, then spent his senior year at IMG Academy. Recruiting services were unanimous in ranking him the top offensive tackle of 2024, and he committed to Colorado in December 2023.Seaton started all 13 games on the left side during his debut season, the most starts by a true freshman in Colorado history, and earned Freshman All-America honors while protecting Shedeur Sanders. He started the first nine games of 2025 and made the Big 12 coaches' second team, but a hamstring issue in September and a lower-body injury in November ended his season three games early.
Seaton left Colorado through the portal and committed to LSU on 23 January 2026 over Oregon and Miami as the top tackle available. He has been LSU's left tackle in every game of Lane Kiffin's first season, giving him 30 college starts, and he earned SEC weekly honors for his work in the 51-10 opening win over Clemson, when LSU allowed no sacks and ran for 309 yards. Eight games in, no sack has been charged to him, though Mississippi State got to him for five pressures. Kiffin has called his physical transformation insane, and Seaton now plays at about 311 pounds after dropping weight from his Colorado days.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Rare athlete for a tackle, with an elite forty for the position
- Zero sacks surrendered over 546 snaps for LSU this fall
- Earned SEC weekly honors for the opening win over Clemson
- Quick-set timing that cuts off speed rushers before they turn the corner
- Two years as a Big 12 blindside starter before he turned 21
- Former No. 1 tackle recruit who started as a true freshman
- Climbs to linebackers in a hurry and adjusts to moving targets
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Run blocking lags behind the protection, a finesse game at the point of attack
- Mississippi State won five reps against him in October
- Injuries ended his 2025 season three games early
Scouting Report: Summary
Seaton is one of the best athletes at tackle in this class, a former No. 1 recruit with snap quickness and set timing that are rare for his size. He has now started at left tackle in three straight seasons at two schools, and protection has been the calling card throughout, from a clean start to 2025 at Colorado to a sack-free first half-season in Baton Rouge. He is still only a third-year player.The move to LSU has gone about as well as it could. The opener against Clemson set the tone, with LSU running for 309 yards and keeping its quarterback clean, and he has held up against SEC speed every week since. He also reshaped his body before the season, and he looks quicker out of his stance. He has started 30 college games and is still only a third-year player.
However, the run blocking still trails the protection. He wins with positioning and angles more than knock-back, and NFL power will test whether the anchor and leg drive arrive. LSU has leaned on him in pass protection more than in short-yardage run calls. Mississippi State beat him for five pressures in October, his roughest day of the season, and teams will want to see that his lighter build holds up against SEC bull rushers late in the year, and he drew 15 penalties as a freshman, though that number has come down. Injuries also ended his 2025 season three games early, so teams will look closely at the medical file.
Overall, Seaton owns the most valuable half of the position at an age when most tackles are still backups, and a third offense in three years has not slowed him. He projects as a first-round blindside starter who can hold the left tackle job for a decade if the power arrives, and who fits any zone-heavy scheme even if it does not.
