RB/FB is going to be interesting. Lynch has 1 year left at least based on contract. Turbin will be a URFA after this year. Michael has two years and has rarely seen the field. Coleman will be RFA after this season. Tukuafu is 31 and only signed for this year.

5'9" and 215 is pretty damned sturdy.

Looks like a kid that can move the chains, but needs to work on pass pro. Doesn't have home run speed, but that's ok in our offense.

3 felonies, I can see why the America's "most wanted" team wanted him, he fits right in with their team.

Hope the Hawks have a real short leash with this guy.

Pete seems to do real well with people who have had a troubled past. If not, he won't make it far so not really concerned.

Purse snatching the elderly is lowest of the low. I'll wear Frank's jersey before this skid mark.

But what was his 40 time running away from her?

He was busted for it right? Maybe she caught him from behind.

This guy sounds like a beast. His nickname is the "Black Beast" which is on a tatoo on his arm. He carried 40 times in two different games. It's going to be fun to watch this guy in preseason.

Carroll calls Thomas Rawls "A Real Bright Spot"

With Marshawn Lynch present for minicamp but absent from voluntary workouts, Robert Turbin rehabbing a hip he recently had surgically repaired, and Christine Michael nursing what Carroll called a "tight" hamstring, Thomas Rawls received a good amount of work in the Seahawks backfield throughout the team's offseason program.

The 5-foot-9, 215-pound running back signed with the Seahawks as an undrafted rookie free agent out of Central Michigan, where he ran for 1,103 yards and 10 TDs in 2014 despite missing four games. Carroll, who said he has studied Rawls closely, called the 21-year-old ballcarrier "a real bright spot" for Seattle.

"I love his style of running," said Carroll. "He’s really a head-knocker. He really goes after guys and when you guys get to see him put the pads on you’ll see how physical of a runner he is. He had play after play in college of just smacking people and running and breaking tackles and all that. He showed very good feet, he caught the ball well, he’s going to be a very-willing blocker.

"He was a real bright spot," the Seahawks head coach added. "I thought he really jumped out at us and he was very consistent, worked throughout the whole thing knowing that his best, maybe most exciting dimension, hasn’t even been seen yet. He had a great camp for us. It’ll be really fun to see him when we start playing ball."

This is comedy gold. Thank you, very much. I actually laughed audibly.

Out of curiosity, where in the low do you rank serial killers and people that get rapey with babies?

People do dumb things when they are young, stupid, and broke. Hopefully Rawls has learned something from the experience of being arrested, getting suspended from his team, and then going undrafted. For the record, the police report identified that it was the friend Rawls was with who was caught on surveillance video actually taking possession of the purse, putting it in a bag, and carrying it out of the Casino. They then drove away together to a gas station, where the friend used a credit card in the purse to pay for gas. Rawls maintained that he never went through the contents of the purse himself. A month later, Rawls was arrested after being identified with the friend in the Casino surveillance video. He ended up pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge of attempted larceny, which carried with it a year of probation and a required 104 hours of community service. He was reinstated by his team two weeks later. At the NFL combine, Rawls denied having stolen the purse or using the credit card.

Oh, no! You can't give a young man a second chance in much better environment, with good influences all around him. He's damned for life. Some of the high, holy and mighty around here, I swear.

She may have purchased the last marbled rye.

This may be the only valid reason for stealing an old lady's purse! (assuming the marbled rye was inside the purse)
