Seahawks sized RB's, situational stats.

I admit that I am a bit of a stats geek, maybe because I was a former performance analyst and have always liked to use numerical comparisons as a valid element of overall evaluations. The below research shows the 2017 season #’s for Seahawks sized RB’s in the coming draft. IMO, These stats go a long way in supporting my conclusion that –Rashaad Penny--is the most under-rated of all of the draft-able RB’s. My current choices for a Seahawk RB pick: #1= Penny, #2=Jones/or/Love, #3=Michel/or/Chubb, #4=Johnson/or/Harris, #5=Gaskin/or/Franklin - pretty much in that order.

Royce Freeman, Oregon, 5-11/230

Intrigues me. Not sure yet I need to look at him more.


Ronald Jones II, USC, 6-1/195 (Breaks tackles)

I like this guy a lot. At the moment, he's my number one that we have a shot at.

I'm not sure about Nick Chubb. I wonder how much he benefits from the Georgia OLine?

My biggest thing is, do they break tackles? So far the best I've seen are Ronald Jones and Rodney Anderson of Oklahoma.

I need to study Rashad Penny, he looks so perfect! But his team mate put up stats too and he couldn't get on the field this year.

I want San Diego States Offensive Line Coach and whoever is in charge of the running backs on the Seahawks staff!

Show me a RB that made decent yards and has the size and speed we need that didn't have road graders in front of him that busted tackles after contact. That's what we need. RB's that have road graders in front of them don't show me anything, anyone can run in those locations. Oh one other thing they need to run angry also.
