I didn't really know how explosive I was. But I really worked hard on that - just being more explosive.\"","spin":"This is a big camp for James, and he obviously knows it. He's been getting first-team reps recently, with Frank Gore (undisclosed) and Kendall Hunter (Achilles) remaining on the sidelines with trainers, and he says that he wants to be considered the No. 1 option on both kickoff and punt returns. There is no doubting James' skills or potential, and he is doing and saying all the right things to show that he is ready to take his game to another level. While Gore and Hunter sit ahead of him on the depth chart, James has the chance to be a huge fantasy asset this year, as Greg Roman will certainly get him his fair share of touches. Bump up James' value even more in keeper leagues, as well as those that count return yards.","date":"Mon Jun 3"},"fullName":"LaMichael James","pointsSEASON":13,"seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"James was a healthy scratch for the first 12 games of his rookie season, until Kendall Hunter tore an Achilles'. After that, James proved he's not too small to play at least a part-time role in the NFL. In December and January, he averaged 5.0 yards per carry as Frank Gore's understudy and provided a spark in the playoffs. Hunter is expected back in time for training camp, but we're skeptical he'll have his regular burst right away. Nevertheless, should Gore suffer an injury in his age-30 season, we'd probably be looking at a James/Hunter platoon.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Mon May 13"},"positionRank":103,"projectedPoints":48}
