RLflutie7 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 According to reports out of San Diego, Darren Sproles is quickly turning heads. Most involved say he's something special. There goes my sleeper for fantasy football. The Chargers released Jesse Chatman because they say he's too fat at 5-8 250. He says he's down to 235. I think that's a mistake because he averaged 6 yards a carry last year. They said he was lazy and didn't participate in rehabing his toe. I used him in fantasy football last year and I was impressed by him. Great downhill runner. Other teams are now interested, especially Minnesota. Chatman became expendable because The Chargers also have Michael "the burner" Turner and Andrew Pinnock (spelling). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louie Armstrong Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Darren Sproles is going to get as much playing time as Bob Dole and Doug Flutie are this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ch19079 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 i could have told you that. most college football fans could have told you that. the only negative thing said about him is his size. but other short RBs have done great things in the NFL.

I like Chatman too. He's too fat. So what. Why cut a guy that gets 20 first downs on 65 carries. Why cut a guy who gets 6-yards a rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
