What's the consensus from you guys regarding a possible suspension for Lynch? Usually DUI/DWI aren't suspendable for 1st offense, but since Lynch already has a history dating back to his Buffalo days, will he serve a suspension? And if so, do you think his legal team + Seahawks FO will appeal / stall until there's a 'soft' section of your schedule? ...
If it were a 4 game suspension for instance, it would benefit the Seahawks if the suspension were to be for games 6 - 9. He'd miss the Titans, @ Cardinals, @ Rams, and Buccaneers. I see that as your easiest stretch next year. You could probably go 3-1 in that stretch even without Lynch. I also think the drafting of Michael plays into this this.
In contrast, if he were suspended for the first 4 games (@ Panthers, the 49ers, the Jaguars, @ Houston) it could more significantly effect your overall playoff resume.

From what I've read/heard, this falls under a different policy (substance abuse vs. personal conduct) from the stuff in Buffalo which was 3-4 years ago. So there may not be a suspension at all. But it seems like the alot think he'll get a 1 game suspension at most.

Lolz, Goodell isn't gonna suspend Lynch when its convenient for the team.
Michaels may have been drafted in accordance to the looming possible suspension but I think the guy is just flat out good. I've seen the guy play for awhile and he and Lattimore are the best backs I've seen in the SEC comming out this last year. Yes, I'm looking at you Eddie Lacy. Lacy at best will be LaGarrett Blunt but slower. Lacy's never played in that cold weather either, being from Louisiana and attending Alabama. I'm getting off topic...
Bottom line, I don't think a possible suspension of Lynch is going to be made convenient on our schedule and Michaels is a Farrarri, where Lynch is a grinder like a Wrangler Rubicon that just goes right over shit and breaks out of almost anything. The Michaels addition was made because he was the best player available and he can hit a home run any time. Lynch and Michaels is a dynamic 1-2 punch.
