Default Assuming Dallas looses a RB what do you think of
This guy? I'm not sure if he's headed to the draft this year (junior), but after watching the bowl game I was impress with his vision, speed, toughness, and tackle breaking ability.

Highlights of Jamaal Charles

According to this, there is no fumble issue. But, even if there were they could be fixed. Tiki is a great example of a back with a fumble problem that was corrected.

If we could get an explosive back and not have to trade up with our 2 #1 picks, wouldn't you?

I like other backs better and we have to wait and see who comes out and who stays

Thank you for this ... I keep looking at the espn page on him wondering where the fumble observation is coming from. I've obviously not seen a lot of him, but recorded stats don't show a fumble issue.

The espn page sucks at keeping fumbles. Jamaal definitely fumbled a lot early this season. It was pissing us die hards off. Look at that highlight film. An example of his habit can be found right before the intermission in the last run vs. Rice. He's carrying it down the right sideline in his left arm, and he stiff arms with his right hand across his body. It looks very awkward. That can be coached.
