On3 DB / JaDon Blair

As a College Recruit

Massive safety prospect with the size, movement skills and physicality to potentially develop into a queen on the chessboard for defenses. Measured at 6-foot-4.5, 195 pounds at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Has outstanding length with 33-inch arms. Has the skills to line up all over the defensive formation. Moves like a much smaller player. High level feet and change of direction in coverage. Comfortable as a zone defender working in single high or cover two. Sticky in man coverage. Active playmaker at the catch point. Using his length and physicality to make plays on the ball. Came down with four interceptions as a junior. Diagnoses plays quickly. Rugged effort level as a downhill run defender. Plays with a physical edge and throws his body around. Still relatively lean and will benefit from adding strength and technique as a tackler. One of the youngest top safeties in the cycle, turning 17 years-old in July prior to his senior season of high school. Owns one of the higher upsides at the position in the 2024 cycle due to his high-end physical traits.

JaDon Blair makes big debut in On300

Charles Power

Safety JaDon Blair makes the biggest debut in the updated 2025 On300, checking in at No. 26 overall. The Winston Salem (N.C.) Mount Tabor product is one of the more physically-gifted 2025 prospects that has come across our radar. Blair has measured over 6-foot-4, 180 pounds with an arm length close to 34 inches. He pairs the big frame and elite length with very good combine athleticism – an electronic 4.65 second 40-yard dash, 4.29 second short shuttle, and 30+ inch vertical. The traits seamlessly transfer over to the field, where Blair flashed smooth movement skills, extensive range in coverage and overall playmaking ability as a sophomore. He’s younger for the cycle and could be a 2026 prospect, which could point to further room for growth with what already looks like a very high upside.
