Expert Analysis
Todd Haldis | Prep Redzone Scout
Another top player out of St. Frances, James is a prospect I have liked for a long time now. Playing mainly WR as a freshman, he got more time at DB and playing it very well which is why he is now #2 ranked ATH in the class.
Playing WR, James displays strong hands and is a strong leaper. He plucks the ball out the air and is able to go up and get it. Effective as red-zone threat as well as across all 3 levels of the passing game. Along with being a crisp route runner, with the ability to beat press and stem his routes to create separation. James is also an excellent blocker at WR, not afraid at all to mix it up and drive DBs out of the plays. On defense,James can cover a lot of grass and comes downhill to fill and shows nice physicality. This allows him to play over the top of come down in the box.
With his combination of excellent size, physicality and athleticism James is a very intriguing prospect. I could see him playing WR/S or even growing into an OLB. There is a lot to like about James’ game and it is no wonder he holds double digit Power offers already. I expect a huge junior season out of James and he will certainly be competing for that #1 ATH spot.
