Could "King" James make it in the NFL?

NFL.com news: Carroll views James as pass rusher, but NBA star wants the ball

Bron has been the talk of the town ever since he tweeted about playing in the NFL, Now he continues to tweet to players and coaches.. I would put him at TE personally what do you'll think?

This should be brought up in 10yrs when we have another LOCKOUT and need things to talk about IMO. Didn't come to the KNICKS so I don't care about him.

What is this Mickey Mouse shit? What in the name of Jesus H. Christ are you animals doing in this thread? Why is LeChoke James being talked about in the football section?! Why is LeChoke James being given attention like the whore he is? Why aren't you stomping LeChoke James guts out??

Me make simple caveman version so all cowboy fan understand. NBA Owners lockout player. Many player go to Europe. Lebron no want go Europe, Lebron want stay. Lebron good high school football catcher. Lebron big and fast.

Lebron flirt on Twitter with coach Carroll. Make Smootsmack go crazy. Submit story to sportmiddle. Linda Cohn report. Blogosphere explode.

This is the greatest post in the history of this thread.

He could make it on athleticism alone. I think the real question is weather or not he would be a star. Honestly though with his speed and size he would be the ideal receiver. 6'8 and I imagine he can run a 4.4 40. He also played the position in high school and was first team all-state in Ohio as a sophomore, one of the better states for High School football. Had he gone through with football I'm pretty sure he could have ended up as a star. However even a year off from football can be a career killer so I doubt he could have much of an impact going from High School football in the early 2000's to pro football 10 years later.

I would love for James to catch a pass down the middle and Landry de-cleat him...

12thMan · 10-12-2011, 06:04 PM

I'd probably play him at TE.

mooby · 10-12-2011, 06:27 PM

Wr or te but it'll never happen. You have to play football for years to hone your craft and learn the ins and out, and it would take too long for him to learn the terminology anyways. So it won't happen, and if it did happen I don't think he'd have the impact hed expect to have.

Exactly. You can't just not play football for 10 years and then expect to understand routes and coverages at the games highest level. It's like going straight from 9th grade algebra to calc III.

Trying to do his own version of what Michael did with the White Sox. Go pro in his other High School sport.

If he'd focused on football he certainly could've been an All-pro level TE or WR. At this point he'd be nothing more than a WR threat in the red zone.

That being said, I'm with NC Skins....F Queen James. Spend more time on improving your team (like Russell, Bird, Magic, MJ, etc. make teammates better) and less time on your "brand". Win a title and a Finals MVP and we'll have something to talk about. Until then QJ needs to STFU.

Let's see him get used to the speed and hitting...and Tony Romo.
