Thomas Rawls (RB, SEA) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 4% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: For the first time in a long, long time - here is a Seahawks running back that has received a lot of positive off-season hype, and might actually pay off.

Thomas Rawls was a UDFA that the Seahawks coaches just would not stop talking about over the off-season. His performances in training camp and the preseason were the catalyst that led to Robert Turbin and Christine Michael's releases, and both had their own hype trains over the last couple of years.

Now, Rawls might get the chance to really show up with Marshawn Lynch injured. But in his first real game seeing NFL action, Rawls had 16 carries for 104 yards - a great show of efficiency, and he played far ahead of veteran Fred Jackson. He is a must-stash for Lynch owners, and makes for a nice deeper league flier for those looking to add more depth to their running backs off the Week 4 waiver wire.
