This could be a case of the right guy in the wrong place at a bad time. ... The Seahawks are loaded at running back -- Marshawn Lynch and Robert Turbin pose a significant obstacle to playing time. But that doesn't mean Michael can't play. According to his NFL.com scouting report, Michael's low center of gravity allows him to take and give out punishment. North-south runner who uses his strong legs to burst out of the hole to eat up six or seven yards in a hurry. He has more speed in the open field than you'd expect given his size and sets up defenders in the open field for a dangerous cut on the run. In this year's Rookie Scouting Portfolio, Matt Waldman wrote, "There are times I think someone superimposed 2003 Ahman Green onto the screen when I watch Michael. He could be the best back in this class. ..." If only he can get on the field.
