The Facts:
Most of us have assumed that James would become an ex-Cardinal this off-season. And while that's still likely, don't rule out the possibility of James returning to the team for the final year of his contract. HC Ken Whisenhunt said on Monday that would like to shore up the running back position before deciding to release James.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As Republic staffer Kent Somers reminded readers, the Cardinals signed Jason Wright in free agency, and he could be the team's third-down back. The Cardinals are expected to draft a back to share time with Tim Hightower. But even with those three players, the position is thin. Whisenhunt also told Somers he could foresee James returning, depending upon personnel moves over the next month to six weeks or so. And it seems certain that James won't be released before the draft in late April.
