Monmouth’s veteran road-grader: Charles James brings size, experience, and steady blindside protection
Charles James is a longtime Monmouth offensive lineman whose value is built on experience, consistency, and flexibility inside the line. In the 2021 season, the 6-foot-5, 315-pound graduate student appeared in all eight games and helped block for the Big South’s passing leader, and his Monmouth bio notes he has also started games at guard and played special teams across multiple seasons. What makes him appealing is the veteran presence: he’s been around the program, knows the system, and offers the kind of dependable, physical profile teams love when they need an OL who won’t flinch.
