He came in ALOT smaller than what he was supposed to be tested well but is really raw on tape. To me that drops him way down the Bengals draft board (Bengals board is different that others teams.)

I think you are embellishing to make a point. Supposed to come in at 6’3” (actually 6’2 7/8”) 225 (played at 211). Reality 6’1 3/4” 215 lbs. I wouldn’t call that ALOT.

Secondly he isn’t raw on tape. He is very good on tape with a few inconsistent moments. Raw is making more mistakes than good plays. James calls the plays in the huddle and makes pre snap adjustments while playing 3 different positions. You can’t do that if you’re raw.

He had been sliding to mid first while Fitzpatrick was a top 6 pick, I bet James goes before Fitzpatrick after today.
