Biography: James has great explosion out of his stance and uses his long arms and strength to jolt the defender at the point of contact. He has good body control and feet, giving him the ability to pull and get up-field. While pass blocking, he uses his terrific footwork to shuffle and mirror the rusher. He shows the awareness to pick up blitzing linebackers, as well, even staying with opponents during retraces.
Selection Committee Quote: “A huge offensive tackle that excels as a run blocker by keeping his legs churning after contact. He might be the best run blocker in the nation.”
