Before we get on with this post, I’m gonna set something straight: I never have and probably never will play Pokemon.  I’m merely familiar with the theme song and I like puns so bingo, bango, bongo, I have a title.  What I’m saying is, if you have Pokemon jokes you’d like to share, feel free to but most likely my comment will be ‘…haha?’.  Good, now that we’ve got that settled, let’s move on to our feature back presentation in Jamaal Charles.  Now why would I suggest Charles?  Isn’t he currently ranked in the top 50 in PPR leagues this year according to yahoo?  Why yes he is.  Thanks me for pointing that out!  But now I’d like to point out another thing.  His ranking over the last 4 weeks of play is 1687 behind such amazing guys as Montario Hardesty and Cedric Peerman.  During that span, Jamaal has only mustererd up 123 total yards of offense and 1 concussion that the Chiefs are claiming was just ‘a neck injury’.  Needless to say, Charles has not been in charge in KC and the offense as a whole has been A-hole in terms of fantasy goodness for most of the year.  Alright, with all the negative out of the way, let’s get to the positives: he’s still Jamaal Charles.  Do you really need more info than that?  Overall, I can’t make any promise he returns to the RB1 glory he started the year off at but who you sitting on at RB2 right now? Mikel LeShoure?  You sure that’s gonna get the job done when playoffs come?  Yeah, didn’t think so.  As always, it’s about what you have to spend to get a guy and Charles should come at a premium with his recent rough stretch and how KC has played.  If you want to be the very best, like no one ever was, to catch them is the real test, to train them is your cause.  Hrm, I think only the first two sentences fit but you get the idea.  Gotta catch Jamaal.  In other fantasy football news…

Buy

Jordy Nelson - I’ve called Jordy a buy quite a few times this season.  I wouldn’t say it’s because I love him, namely because I don’t, but he keeps ending up in buy low situations.  After healing up from a hamstring issue and playing last week, his lone attempt at a catch saw him turn his ankle and exit the game early.  With a bye week on the horizon and his recent injury woes, good lordy ‘ole Jordy is looking like a good nab if his owner is feeling worried.
