In many ways, Carson is the perfect back for the Seahawks. Seattle's much-maligned offensive line improved at run blocking last year, but having a lead back who is more interested in running through people rather than waiting for holes to develop is a great fit when those holes don't open. The Oklahoma State product actually led the NFL in broken tackles on rushes in 2018 - his 58 was two ahead of Saquon Barkley - and while that running style makes Carson more susceptible to injury, the results last year were impressive once he seized the No. 1 job for good in Week 3. He finished with Seattle's first 1,000-yard season since Marshawn Lynch in 2014, reviving a moribund rushing attack. He doesn't have any other standout traits as a runner, however, and he doesn't provide much value as a receiver, limiting his overall upside. Rashaad Penny, the 27th overall pick in last year's draft, will push hard for more touches, but the duo have a lot in common in terms of their skill sets, so a traditional runner/receiver timeshare isn't likely to develop. More likely, coach Pete Carroll will let his running backs battle for carries, which could lead to solid season totals for both but frustration when it comes to guessing which player will come out on top any given week.
