Jamaal Charles
Where do you think Charles will rank among the great Kansas City backs after a few more seasons? I think he'll be number one ahead of both Holmes and Larry Johnson. That's some pretty stiff competition, but this guy's talent is off the charts. I'd put him second to Chris Johnson right now in terms of talent, and I think he could give Johnson a run for his money as early as next season too.
He has that Johnson-esque deceptive speed. He really doesnt look fast out there, but he is still able to blow by defenders. It almost looks like he's gliding out there, much like Johnson. He also has tremendous vision. Another thing that has to be noted is that he's running behind that awful Chiefs o-line as well, and still picked up a league leading 5.9 yards per carry.
