Charles, before his injuries, was a better blocker than Ware.
Ware was more physical but Charles was equally willing and smarter. Seriously, go back and look at him in his prime; the guy would absolutely kill blitzing linebackers because he had virtually flawless technique. Hell, the guy flat out broke Brian Cushing's leg on a block.
Very few guys were better at diagnosing a blitz, getting to their spot and making the right type of block at the right time than Jamaal Charles. He wasn't going to try to go upright and go chest to chest with some dude flying off the edge, but he'd toss a chip in there to get them off balance or cut the shit out of them if he needed to.
Charles was an outstanding blocker. You're out of your depth and by a fair amount.
