It's been bugging me for a while trying to come up with a good comparison for Jaamal but I've finally figured out who he reminds me of; Chris Johnson.
Here's some highlight vids to compare.

With the way he makes people miss and changes direction, he kind of reminds me of a smaller Marshawn Lynch. Berry catches very well out of the backfield and has pretty decent power. No doubt that Berry has a similar running style as Marchawn:

I'll throw my name out there: Chris Johnson of the Tennessee Titans. Not the biggest guy (5'10, 200 lbs), but fast, reasonably strong and a good reciever out of the backfield.

*edit* Crap, nm, Oregon beat me to it. Good call.

Marshawn a.k.a. Beast Mode

These videos of Berry are absolutely amazing. I can only imagine what he'll do with that cutting ability with the holes that Block "O" will create.

I don't know about all the comparisons. I also don't know which impresses me more: the way he uses his blockers so effectively (very savvy for such a young runner); or the way he makes things happen when there is no blocking. Heckuva combination of talent, smarts, and instincts.
