Will Jamaal Charles Start for the chiefs?

Have him as my fantasy Running Back and want to get opinions

he is number 2 on the depth chart right now but i just don't see how the chiefs let thomas jones start over him

He's a very good player who gets underrated.

 

He will be a factor this year

I picked him up.  He'll have plenty of playing time I think

write a thread to samuelsosa he's the resident jamaal charles expert

You and me both pal. Jamaal led the league in yards per carry last year at 5.9ypc, tied with Felix Jones but had 80+ more carries. I love Charles, especially in a dynasty PPR league which I am in. He makes me drool.

Another point I think should be made is that Jamaal Charles doesnt need 24+ carries a game to hit 100yds. I think he'll get 14-18 carries per game and I think that will get him over 100 yds a number of times. Add in his receptions [he gets plenty] and I just dont see how you dont love him. In a dynasty league I see him becoming a top 5 RB in 2 yrs tops.

Also this is coming from a Thomas Jones owner last yr [1400yds rushing, 14td's.] The Chiefs will give Thomas very little room to run as opposed to the Jets last year and the Chiefs [Haley] will quickly realize Jamaal Charles' speed and quickness is what it takes to get yards for that team.

Jamal Charles if he stays healthy will be the starter.  Just too explosive not to be.  Plus he fits right in with that Polei is trying to put together in KC.  Frankly, if I was a Chiefs fan I would really love where this team is going.  BOL!

haley said today he is still in the mix to start, just offseason shoulder injury put him behind.

I heard today that Jones will most likely start but that Charles will get the majority of the touches.

Really in this day and age of running backs in the NFL does it matter who starts?  It is all about touches.

Jamaal Charles is Chris Johnson now?

When did that happen. I think hes a good player but a unproven one and that is probably why thomas jones will start. Thomas Jones has the most yardage of any rb since 2000 I mean damn what you want? lol

Everyone likes the young guy but I will take Thomas Jones if he is still around down the road in my draft.

He's actually behind LT I believe but the guy has 1000 yards every year, hes not exactly chopped liver.
