For comparison:
(Drafted in 06) Marshawn Lynch is at 8,600 yards and 80 TDs
(Drafted in 07) Adrian Peterson is at 10,000 yards and 90 TDs
(Drafted in 08) Matt Forte is at 7,700 and 60 TDs
(Drafted in 09) Lesean McCoy is also just shy of 7,000 yards with just over 50 TDs
(Drafted in 08) Chris Johnson is at 8,600 yards with 50 TDs
Jamaal is pretty much right in line with all of the top backs as far as career numbers go; actually doing better than most if you account for the fact that he didn't start his first year and missed an entire season due to the ACL injury.
Playing in such shit offenses his first several seasons really limited his TD opportunities but he's more than made up for it the past couple with Reid. If he can maintain this level of production for a few more years and do some damage in a playoff win or two his chances will look much better.
