Christine Michael available?

[Vanilla2]

RWilliams, DMC or Randle

So he'd take Williams spot is what you're saying

 

[DFWJC]

I agree, but he has been failing to get carries while behind the hardest running, most durable back in the league. His resume is t any stronger than anyone else but i would think the alleged pedigree would offset being the new guy. Its funny to see the reversal in seattle. He was supposed to take the job but lynch is just such a tank. Normally id say beast, but that would be too lame to say about lynch at this point.

Lynch and Turbin = nothing left for Michael
And now they might have another hard running back Rawls--who would come at a cheaper rate and for two extra years vs Michael.

 

[darthseinfeld]

So people now want another tight end? Lol

Cowboys fans know you can never have enough TEs

I guess he was assuming Williams beats out Dunbar...not sure.

 

[guag]

Never heard of this guy

He was a 2nd rounder in 2013. I think the Seahawks had it in mind for him to be Lynch's replacement at some point, but it doesn't look like Lynch is slowing down yet.

I imagine that if someone like michael is added...then 2 of them randle and williams make the team. Then dunbar and mcfadden are competing for the same spot. Does that not seem reasonable?

I'd be very surprised if Williams makes the team at this point. It seems like he's been in perpetual injury mode for 3 years. He absolutely needs to make it out of training camp healthy to have a shot.

Christine, Randle and McFadden would be a good crew. Christine would be the main back, Randle the COP and McFadden the Darren Sproles

 

[guag]

For the record, I'd probably take this guy over Dunbar and Williams. Give me Randle, McFadden, and Michael and I'm good.

 

[darthseinfeld]

I honestly think they are more likely to get rid of Rawls. Trading a former 2nd round pick that just has gotten the opportunity for very poor value is a very bitter pill to swallow. Teams dont like to just give away talent.

 

[Hardline]

I watched him a lot when he played for Texas A&M

 

[StarBoyz83]

After some of my professional YouTube scouting I'd be ok with him taking williams spot. He looks pretty good.

 

[Picksix]

He would have to slot at the top of the depth chart. If the hawks actually gave him up id be surprised. Lynch has a lot of miles on him every year, the wheels should fall off before they lose control of michael.

It'll be interesting to see what they do. There hasn't been a whole lot of local talk about the Seahawks yet, outside of Wilson's contract, Bennett wanting a new deal, and Irvin trying to convince everyone that he wants to be here. They have Lynch, Turbin, Michael, and the Rawls kid that almost signed with Dallas. They have two others, but they're both rookie UDFA's (I think). I can't see them moving anyone during TC, and it will be a matter of whether they keep 3 or 4 RB's on the 53. I think Turbin is a candidate for being cut possibly. It's the last year of his rookie deal, he would carry a 144,000 cap hit but a 660,000 savings. Michael's in the third year of his deal, would carry a 417,000 hit, but a 503,000 savings. Not sure if either of those would be an upgrade. Michael had a 5 YPC avg last year, but on only 34 carries. Had 1 recpetion. Turbin had a 4.2 avg, on 42 carries. 16 receptions. Hard to say.

I don't know anything about him in the room and off the field, but if that checked out I'd be trying almost everything to get him here. If Seattle were to get rid of him I'm sure they'd do all they could to keep him away from us. Love this guy's talent.

Yeah, he might be the 1st to go.

 

[chris1995]

Seattle may not deal him to us, but I'd give up a conditional 6th to bring this guy back to Texas...

That article talked about a 280 pound FB, that might be awesome behind the Dallas offensive line.

 

[darthseinfeld]

He is one of three guys I would like to see them make a play for if they are looking to add someone. The other two being Lamar Miller and Tre Mason.

I may actually favor Michael because Mason cominh off a successful rookie season and having 3 years left on his deal will cost a few rounds more in compensation. And Miller would be a one year rental

 

[guag]

That's right. I knew the Rawls name sounded familiar. They supposedly like him a lot (well, for a UDFA anyway). And we almost had him... go figure.

Well anyway, unless Seattle keeps 4 backs, one of those guys will become available. And I think any one of them could potentially be an upgrade over the bottom of our RB depth chart.

Seattle was the best rushing team in the league last year after all, ahead of the 2nd place team (us) by over 25 yards/gm. Their combined YPC was also a lot better than ours (5.3 vs 4.6 for us). I figure that if we're gonna pilfer a RB from another team at some point, it might as well be the Seahawks.

Yeah, the Seahawks are not a bad team to get players from , they seem to get the good ones.

They certainly know what they're doing when it comes to acquiring talent. I think we're giving them a run for their money lately though.
