Interesting Running Back rankings & analysis on the top RB's in the coming draft. I specifically like the analysis portion regarding ball security. *** Very interesting that Chubb & Michael may NOT be real considerations for the Seahawks, because we all know PC hates turnovers with a mad passion.

RB's- Jackson, Smith, Edmonds, Pettway, Franklin, Nall, Webb, Thomas & UW's Lavar Coleman - all are very likely UDFA's, and this article doesn't detail their ball security ratios.

IMO-The Seahawks RB Targets in the coming draft boil down to the following players:

----------Middle Rd-1 to Middle of Rd-2: (IMO-Best pick = Jones if available after a trade down)
=RB-Ronald Jones, currently ranked #39-overall, Projected Rd-1/2 @nfldraftscout.com
=RB-Darius Guice, currently ranked #35-overall, Projected Rd-1/2 @nfldraftscout.com

----------Middle Rd-2 to Late Rd-3: (IMO-Best pick = Penny or Johnson, in that order,)
=RB-Kerryon Johnson, currently ranked #43-overall, Projected Rd-2 @nfldraftscout.com
=RB-Rashaad Penny, currently ranked #63-overall, Projected Rd-2 @nfldraftscout.com
=RB-John Kelly, currently ranked #103-overall, Projected Rd-3 @nfldraftscout.com

----------Early Rd-4 to Late Rd-5: (IMO-Best pick = Freeman if available.)
=RB-Josh Adams, currently ranked #125-overall, Projected Rd-3/4 @nfldraftscout.com
=RB-Royce Freeman, currently ranked #143-overall, Projected Rd-4 @nfldraftscout.com

----------UDFA's: (Sign a few for camp competition and possibly find a gem like Carson =?)
=Franklin(#300-overall, @nfldraftscout.com),
=Pettway(#238-overall, @nfldraftscout.com),
=Coleman(#428-overall, @nfldraftscout.com).
