Jamaal Charles, RB, Kansas City Chiefs (1 Viewer)

I am going for around 100 total yards and a TD on MNF. I own him in one league where I don't need him to put up really anything and in another where I need him to get shutdown. So it'll be an interesting night for me.

As for Charles overall I have been going back in forth all summer but have been really high on him the last few weeks. I think that he has elite speed and above average vision and elusiveness. I think Jones and McCluster could actually be good for him in the long run b/c they can reduce the wear and tear (Jones) and provide some explosiveness in another weapon (McCluster) that could help move the ball, extend drives, and give defenses more to worry about.

And if "The Moz" in this thread is the same Moz that posted on another site that I used to be on frequently then I am even more confident that Charles will have a very good season.

In June of 2008 I started a thread about how much I loved Chris Johnson and Moz basically said he would be useless for FF purposes. Then in 2009, Moz started a thread DURING the season that basically said Ray Rice was a bust. So I am hoping that his 2010 outlook for Charles will enjoy similar results.

Unless this was all a coaching ploy -- J. Charles will be one of the most overated backs in the draft.A. T. Jones will get at least 40% of the carries ( is on paper the starter )B. D. McCluster will be getting 10% of the carries plus steal many PPR chances from CharlesC. KC just isn't a scoring machine or a great offense. In burst Charles has been great being the main over the ong haul is totally different maybe he is Tiki 2.0 I just don't buy it.I love the scoffing of Dex McCluster playing RB -- ask any defensive player in the SEC last year what RB scared them the most -- it wasn't Mark Ingram it was Dex.. Could Dex hold up as a feature back -- NO but he is the most explosive player they have to not get hime 5-8 carries would be plain dumb.
:rolleyes:

Hey, now-so McCluster only got 1 carry, not 5-8. So that carry went for zero yards. He still scared SEC defenders last year. Doesn't your league give points for that?

those that didn't think Charles would have a very good year were not paying attention last year..There was no "hyoe" to buy into, just watch some football games and see what a player can do.

Best advice I can ever give to fantasy owners who rely on stats and box scores.WATCH THE GAMES. ALL OF THEM.
