Geddy11 4 Posted September 7, 2010 I picked Jamaal Charles in the 3rd round with some hesitation and have been doubting this pick until today. I really didn't know much about the guy, only that he really looked good at the end of last year, and i picked him on the advice of a friend. So today i decide to look some his highlights on youtube and boy was i impressed. This guy has some serious explosion and speed. It's almost if you put him in a Tennessee uniform you wouldn't know the difference between him and CJ. Am i missing something here???? Is this guy really that good???? Cause to me, i see some serious potential in this guy. THoughts???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jarvis Basnight 119 Posted September 7, 2010 I think if you watched highlight reels of many RB's, you'd see explosion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 5,893 Posted September 7, 2010 I really wanted him in the 2nd round but he went two picks before mine. Now I hope he fractures his leg Week 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
surferskin 30 Posted September 7, 2010 Hey, fellas, I just drafted this guy named Adrian Peterson and was a little bummed that i didn't end up with CJ. But I decided to look up this Peterson guy on youtube...and guess what?? He's pretty good!!! Thoughts??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geddy11 4 Posted September 7, 2010 I think if you watched highlight reels of many RB's, you'd see explosion. I do realize that everyone looks good on their hightlight reel, im not that stupid. Just looking for some opinions on this guys potential or some KC homer's insight on this guy or if people think this guy is the real deal or not. Easy as that.

Buttmonkey 8 Posted September 7, 2010 You needed a "friend to persuade you" to take Charles in the "third" round. Wow - "insert deogratory league comment here" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boz/BoFan 0 Posted September 7, 2010 This guy looks decent too... maybe a deep sleeper here: Actually he looks like an amazingly slow tailback on an excellent team. Id steer clear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrbdmb 28 Posted September 7, 2010 Jamaal Charles - I see an explosion I saw the thread title, though maybe Charles got a severe case of the shits during the last preseason game. I hope he's OK for Week 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justforbeer 39 Posted September 7, 2010 Holy explosion Batman! Did you see that tackle? that was textbook! Looks like the guy had a seizure afterwards...what a hit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GridIronAssassin#1 0 Posted September 8, 2010 I thought Thomas Jones was the starter? Is there any evidence that Jamaal Charles will receive the majority of carries or is it mere hearsay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Law 220 Posted September 8, 2010 All jokes aside, Jamaal's HC seems to not like him much. He's either a total douche or an idiot. Not sure which yet. How much TJones actually plays will go a long way towards determining that. It's also a reason Charles slide a little in the drafts. There is some risk in taking him with a higher pick based on his HC's stupidity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluesrams2 0 Posted September 8, 2010 I thought Thomas Jones was the starter? Is there any evidence that Jamaal Charles will receive the majority of carries or is it mere hearsay? Watching the two backs should make it clear who the better talent is. If Haley is stupid enough to use Thomas Jones over Charles he doesn't deserve to coach a high school football team, let alone an NFL team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted September 8, 2010 remember a few years ago when a guy named Marion Barber had an excellent fantasy season and didn't "start". they can name TJ the starter for every game. I fully expect Charles to get 60%+ of the carries and put up solid numbers along with some very big games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
