#49-2012-Jamaal Charles RB Kansas City Chief- Charles made a great comeback after knee injury in 2012, and what made it really special was it was with the pathetic Chiefs offense.  Charles gained 1,509 yards with 5 touchdowns. His real announcement that he was back was in Week #3 against the New Orleans Saints when he rushed for 233 yards and a touchdown.  Charles is a round #1 pickup if you can ignore he plays for the Chiefs.

#49-Retro-2002- Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense-This was when the Bucs defense with Warren Sapp and Ronde Barber were at their best.  Their defense led them to the Super Bowl Championship.  Their defense recorded 44 sacks 31 interceptions, 7 forced fumbles and 5 touchdowns.

Looking Ahead

ESPN-Montee Ball-RB-Denver Broncos- Pick a running back any running back on the Broncos and they could be the #1.  Ball will have to pick up the blocking scheme to make a huge fantasy option so picking him high is risky.

CBS– Ahmad Bradshaw-RB Indianapolis Colts- Trust me I have Bradshaw on one of my dynasty teams and I want him to have a huge season, but i’m not calling this a guarantee by a long stretch.
