Oregon’s 2027 recruiting haul is still sitting near the top of the national picture, and the Ducks have another strong showing in the latest class rankings to prove it.
In Rivals’ Industry rankings, Oregon checks in at No. 4 for the class of 2027. That puts the Ducks in the top five, though they are a spot behind their 247Sports ranking, where they sit at No.
- Only Texas A&M, Notre Dame and Miami are ahead of Oregon in the Rivals Industry rankings.
The Ducks’ class already includes 24 commitments, and the ranking is being driven by a class loaded with high-end talent. Oregon has landed two five-star commits, 14 four-star commits and eight three-star commits.
At the top of the group is wide receiver Dakota Guerrant, one of Oregon’s five-star pledges. Guerrant stands out for his route-running and what he does after the catch, and the source material describes him as arguably the top receiver in the class across a wide range of traits. It also calls him arguably Oregon’s best commit overall, regardless of ranking.
The Ducks’ other five-star commitment is EDGE Rashad Streets, who brings a serious pass-rushing toolkit. He has the bend, speed and variety of moves to get after the quarterback, and he is also praised for his ability to hold up on the edge against option plays and outside runs.
Most of Oregon’s class is made up of four-star prospects, and several of them are viewed as players who could climb even higher. Xavier Sabb is one of the most intriguing names in that group. The four-star athlete and wide receiver recruit is just four spots away from five-star status in Rivals’ view, and that kind of jump is described as within reach.
Cornerback Hayden Stepp is another four-star who stands out. He is ranked inside the top 40 in the Rivals Industry Rankings and is projected as a potential multi-year starter at the next level. Both Sabb and Stepp are also listed as five-star recruits by ESPN.
The rest of Oregon’s four-star group includes quarterback Will Mencl, safety Semaj Stanford, cornerback Tae Walden Jr., linebacker Toa Satele, defensive lineman Zane Rowe, running back CaDarrius McMiller, defensive lineman Cam Pritchett, cornerback Josiah Molden, offensive lineman Gus Corsair, tight end Anthony Cartwright III and linebacker Brandon Lockley Jr.
Oregon’s three-star group may not grab the same headlines, but the class still includes several players described as underrated and well-suited to the Ducks’ scheme. The point, according to the source, is not that Oregon settled for lesser talent. It is that these are players who fit what Dan Lanning and his staff want to do.
Among that group, Achilles Reyna is the most notable name. The three-star EDGE and defensive lineman is considered a possible early contributor even though some view him as more of a developmental prospect. The source points to his disciplined approach and says he has changed the game for his high school program.
The rest of Oregon’s three-star commitments are safety Malakai Taufoou, offensive lineman Avery Michael, offensive lineman Lex Mailangi, linebacker Sam Ngata, EDGE Josh Christensen, wide receiver Malachi Garlington and tight end George VanSandt.
With the class already taking shape, Oregon’s attention now shifts toward adding more pieces before early signing day, which is set for later in 2026 in December.

Oregon May Have Found 3 More Hidden Gems In 2027
Oregons 2027 recruiting class already has the kind of headliners that usually draw the most attention, but the Ducks may also be building something more durable behind the scenes. Wide receiver Malachi Garlington, defensive lineman Achilles Reyna and defensive back Malakai Taufoou all fit the profile of commits who were not always the flashiest names in the cycle, yet each brings traits and production that suggest real upside if Oregons development track record holds.
Garlingtons climb in the rankings reflects how quickly his stock is rising, while Taufoou arrives with a two-way resume and a long list of programs that wanted him. Reyna is still early in his football journey, which only adds intrigue to what Oregon thinks it can mold there.
