Summary

James finally turned in a (mostly) healthy season, playing in 15 of 17 games and continuing his ascent into the upper tier of NFL defenders. A true chess piece that can be schemed into making plays from all over the formation, James posted 118 tackles (7 for loss), 2 interceptions, 2.0 sacks, 3 forced fumbles, and 5 pass breakups despite sitting two games. Provided there's no holdout during camp, he's an upper-crust IDP option in any fantasy format whatsoever.
