Scouting Report

BOSTON COL · 2026 draft class

Jude Bowry is a twitchy, explosive offensive tackle from Boston College whose physical tools and flashes suggest first-round upside if his development continues on its current trajectory. The 6-5, 308-pound redshirt sophomore flies out of his stance to beat rushers to the spot while remaining square, showing the kind of burst and range that is rare at the tackle position. When his hands land inside, Bowry has a firm anchor and the ability to immediately clamp inside the frame of rushers, displaying a jolt in his hands on contact. He shows the range and fluidity to expand set points, widen rushers off his edge, and protect the corner on an island -- traits that project to a starting NFL left tackle. Bowry started 12 games at left tackle in 2024 after starting twice at right tackle as a true freshman in 2022. His burst on the move allows him to intersect targets effectively on screens and climbs to the second level. However, Bowry's technique remains inconsistent, particularly in pass protection where he floats off his spot into oversets and opens too soon, creating a soft inside shoulder for defenders to attack. His strike timing and placement are erratic, creating a boom-or-bust element when left on an island. He plays passive on angle-drive blocks, looking to hold ground rather than uproot and displace defenders. Poor outings against Louisville and North Carolina in 2024 exposed his inexperience and showed that his technique gets him into compromising positions. Bowry has a wide range of outcomes -- he could be a top-30 pick with continued development or slide to Day 3 if the technique does not improve.
