Ideally OSU recruits enough stud OTs to let a guy like James slide down to OG which I think would be a more natural fit but I honestly haven't seen enough of James yet to say he can't eventually be an OT.

JOE ROYER AND JAKOB JAMES
Elder had some big wins in 2018, but it didn’t translate to the end result it was hoping for. It defeated a good Indianapolis Cathedral team, a Paris Johnson-led St. Xavier team and a shutout victory against Archbishop Moeller, where 2021 quarterback Malik Verdon plays. Verdon is getting looks from Ohio State. James secures the offensive front for Elder, and Royer seals the edge and is a reliable option in the passing game. James is coming off of shoulder surgery, so seeing whether he maintains the strength that is heralded around the Elder program is key for his 2019 season.
First Game: at Lincoln, Aug. 30
Game to Watch: at Winton Woods, Oct. 18
Winton Woods went 13-2 last season and saw its season come to an end against Massillon, but it defeated Elder, 28-10, along the way. A trio of prospects – Miyan Williams, DeMeer Blankumsee and Miquan Grace – were all in talks with Ohio State as in-state recruits at some point during the 2020 cycle, and they were part of the core that made Winton Woods such a force in 2018. While Jakob James and Joe Royer won’t take them on much directly, the head-to-head matchup still holds true.
