knight526806 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Carol said they will bring Rawls along slowly, I guess he wasn't lying. I would be worried about starting Rawls in week 1, and if C Mike goes off.. well who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heehawks Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Well this is making things very interesting indeed. Kinda sucks because I picked Rawls as my no.2 RB last night in my local. Gonna have to wait and be patient I suppose and see how things shake out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcat Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 (edited) Rawls will be a monster week 1. Watch him get 20+ carries. I've got a feeling everyone benching him will be shaking their heads after the game. note: this message is part speculative opinion, part hunch and in part, wishful thinking. I am rubbing my trusty rabbit's foot as I type. Edited September 6, 2016 by Dcat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MothAudio Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 After Martin I drafted Booker, Washington and Michael as my #2 RB. Really need one of those guys to carry the load or I'll be beating the WW bushes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTSuper7 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I drafted Spencer Ware as a stopgap #2 RB not knowing Rawls' status or share of week 1 work. Probably should have grabbed Michael to be safe, but I guess I just don't buy it yet with Michael despite what he's looked like in the preseason. I really hope this doesn't turn into an even timeshare. I'd rather Rawls be a complete bum so I can move on or a solid RB2. An even timeshare would be the gheyest outcome ever.

Rawls was outplayed by Week 1 starter Christine Michael, who rushed for 66 yards on 15 carries (4.4 YPC) while Rawls mustered up just 24 yards on 11 totes (2.2 YPC). The Seahawks obviously saw enough out of Rawls to make him the lead dog in this tandem, however, and we still expect Michael to have a role. But Michael can't be trusted in fantasy lineups now, while Rawls is back on the RB2 map. The Rams allowed three rushing touchdowns to the 49ers in Week 1.

michaelredd9 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Looks like someone is going to get his shot Seahawks list Thomas Rawls (shin) as doubtful http://www.rotoworld.com/headlines/nfl/342493/seahawks-list-thomas-rawls-(shin)-as-doubtful?ls=roto:SEA:topheadlines Thomas Rawls (shin) is doubtful for Week 3 against the 49ers. He hasn't practiced this week and won't be ready for Sunday. With passing-down back C.J. Prosise (wrist) listed as questionable, Christine Michael will have little competition for carries in Week 3. In a dream matchup with San Francisco, he can be safely employed as an RB1/2. Source: John Boyle on Twitter Sep 23 - 4:44 PM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelredd9 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 If Christine Michael scores anything less than 50 fantasy points this Sunday, it'll be a disappointment. I predict 205 yards rushing, 5 receptions, 45 yards receiving, 3 touchdowns. He is going to get his shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenzal rhomb Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 How soft is Rawls - out for a shin contusion. I picked him up last year thinking I had fantasy gold.

michaelredd9 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I wonder if Rawl's "shin" injury is non-existent and the Seahawks just want to give Christine Michael an audition for the lead back role without the hoopla of a controversy over who is the starter. Marshawn is waiting in the wings. The Seahawks maybe just want to know what they have in Christine Michael. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
