Oh LaMichael James, Where Art Thou?
Today is the first time we have heard anything about LaMichael James. Finally we hear something in regards to James after he demanded to be released by the San Francisco 49ers. According to Field Yates of ESPN the Miami Dolphins worked out former 49ers RB LaMichael James on Tuesday.

The Dolphins worked out former 49ers RB LaMichael James, per league source.
This is the first reported interest in James since San Francisco placed him on waivers last week. He wound up going unclaimed and is now able to sign with a team of his choosing.
James, 24, was taken in the second-round of the 2012 draft, but was unable to carve out a role with the 49ers. So here is the problem folks, if you are not a good player and you are on a team, why would you request a trade?
The Miami Dolphins re-signed Daniel Thomas over you. Daniel Thomas has more fumbles than Dave Krieg (KIDDING), but that is not a good sign. LaMichael James demanded a trade, thinking his former employer the NINERS would say something good about him?
Come on buddy, you must be crazy. I do not expect him to sign anywhere soon, he obviously has some question marks about his attitude.
