2.) Isaiah Simmons is a bigger, Quicker, and Faster version of James.
3.)Why not? He is going to give you what Kam Chancellor did in Seattle.
Kam Chancellor was one of the last big hitters. He got away with a lot of hits that are flags and fines today. There were no medical concerns on James heading into the draft, there was an ACL as a sophomore but that isn't knocking a guy with no additional issues in the season proceeding the draft. The knock was he missed a lot of tackles for whatever reason and his man coverage was not quite up to par.
Simmons could be good, but he is not a top 5 pick type player. If a team loves him as an undersized elite coverage MLB maybe he goes in the 5-9 range, but that would be a big ask at his current weight.
