Purdue’s low-volume, proven slot-style receiver with efficient hands
Chris James has shown a compact, efficient profile at Purdue, finishing his collegiate run with 23 catches for 187 yards and 1 touchdown across four seasons, which points to a role player who can be trusted in the right package rather than a featured volume target.[2] At a listed 5-10 and 170 pounds coming out of Tampa Jesuit, he brings smaller-frame quickness and a likely separation-oriented skill set that can fit a team looking for a reliable, assignment-sound receiver with upside in space.[3] The key question is usage: he looks more like a complementary fit than a centerpiece, but that can still be valuable on the right roster.[2][3]
