Jackson Block
Founder & CEO - Blueprint Recruiting
Jackson Block brings eight years of experience in college and professional football, with a background spanning recruiting, player evaluation, and NFL scouting.
Most recently, Jackson served as an NFL Scout for the Carolina Panthers, evaluating hundreds of college and professional players and assisted in building an NFC South Division Championship roster and Carolina’s first playoff appearance in 7 years.
Before joining the Panthers, Jackson served as the Director of Recruiting at UNC Charlotte, helping build the two highest-ranked recruiting classes in program history, which included multiple NFL draft picks (Demetrius Knight - 2025 2nd round pick, Grant DuBose - 2023 7th round pick) amongst several undrafted free agents. He also gained Power Four recruiting experience at the University of Colorado, working directly within the college recruiting process and learning what programs look for when evaluating prospective student-athletes. This included aiding the recruiting processes of players such as Christian Gonzalez (All-Pro and the highest paid CB in the NFL).
His experience on both sides of the recruiting process—from identifying high school prospects at the college level to evaluating NFL Draft prospects—provides the foundation for Blueprint Recruiting.
Today, Jackson uses that experience to give athletes and families an honest, informed approach to recruiting: evaluate the player, build the right strategy, and help each athlete maximize their opportunities.
