Thought Turbin looked like the replacement for Lynch, but now another HB early.

Agreed, and this guy was the top performer at the combine. Not a good sign for Lunh even though he's been a beast the past couple seasons. Should be interesting.

According to this article, looks like Michael may be the guy to 'cuff w/ Lynch now:

He is a hold in leagues and a guy I would take with most 2nd round picks. He is a guy that you will have to hold for a couple years at least, cause he won't see enough field time to be worth a play, unless there is an injury. If he is still available at my #19 pick, I will take him no problem, just off of potential. I did the same thing with Lamar Miller last year

It means that Marshawn Lynch will be out of Seattle after the 2014 season and that Turbin / Michael will fight for the #1 RB spot. I personally like Turbin because there's not as many questions surrounding him.

I'm sorry for all of you on the Christine Michael bandwagon but the guy has some serious character issues and while he is loaded with athletic ability how come that didn't translate to the football field? I mean those #'s were eye popping and the #'s he put up playing collegiate ball on the field were moderate AT BEST.

I've also never seen a coaching staff come out and slam a kid so hard in an obvious attempt to kill his draft stock like they did Christine Michael. There's obviously some real character concerns here.

He's certainly worth a flier late but I'm not entirely sure I take Michaels with out being solved on the fact he's going to be a better pro then he was a college player and that he's not going to be Titus Young 2.0.
