Reggie Bush provides a perfect look into what is going to happen to Charles. People that cant run inside, can not be everyday backs in the NFl, their lack of size and strength delegates them to a "specialty" back. Now you take into account how ineffective Bush was for the saints with a stellar passing attack via Drew Brees, and it amounts to Charles being a very low end option, as he doesnt provide the same open field moves that Bush has, though his speed may be slightly better. Bottom line, if Vince and Bush cant get to the corner in the pros, Charles isnt getting to the corner, and if he tries to run inside, NFL LBS and DTs will crush him and cause more than a few fumbles. I wouldnt of drafted him at all, unless you need a punt returner or a guy to come in and run screen plays or other special calls. Problem with that, every time he comes in its a special play, and scouts know this. I give him 1 unproductive year, maybe two, before he either is out of the NFL all together or running back kicks on a team with no other options.
