James Durand Scouting Reports

2 Reports
  1. James Durand is an On3 Outlier

    Charles Power8/3/22

    James Durand has been an On300 member since the initial release last year. He lines up at left tackle for Chandler (Ariz.) Basha but projects inside at Wisconsin. Durand has a 6-foot-10 wing-span with a big frame. He has advanced movement skills in pass protection, particularly for an interior prospect. Durand doubles a physical run blocker who excels at the second level. The athleticism checks out as well – Durand posted a 4.71 second short shuttle prior to his junior season and was a state finalist in the discus this spring.

  2. James Durand Scouting Summary

    Primary
    Cody Bellaire7/18/22

    Well-rounded, athletic offensive lineman who is likely to slide inside at the college level. Measured at 6-foot-4.5, around 270-pounds prior to his junior season. Has plus length, particularly on the interior with a 6-foot-10 wing-span. An easy, light footed mover on the field, which is backed up by a strong 4.71 second shuttle time as a rising junior. Shows lateral agility and reactive quickness in pass protection. Moves to the second level to block linebackers and defensive backs with ease. Plays with a nasty streak and competitive nature. Can continue getting stronger but has the framework and hand strength that points to continued progression as he adds mass. May not be as dominant a finisher as some other top linemen at this stage, but has few discernible weaknesses. Also participates in track, where he has posted a very strong 161-9 foot mark in the discus.
