C.J. Prosise

If you could go back and read some of the blurbs on Prosise from the last two years, you'd wonder why everyone has forgotten about him. He was touted as a David Johnson-type running back who was a better receiver than he was a runner, which made sense having formerly played wide receiver at Notre Dame. He's the best pass-catcher in the Seahawks backfield and has produced while on the field, so I wouldn't simply forget about him. If he can stay healthy, he could turn out to be a Gio Bernard-type producer for them.

C.J. Prosise in great shape

While attending the Seahawks OTAs, reporter John Clayton says that running back C.J. Prosise is up to 225 pounds after changing his workout regimen this offseason, and that the work he's done on his body does show improvement.

Fantasy Impact

While most are discussing Rashaad Penny and Chris Carson, it appears that most have forgotten about Prosise, who drew comparisons to David Johnson coming out of college. The issue with Prosise hasn't been his skill-set, either, but rather his ability to stay on the field. He's only played 11 of a possible 32 games over his first two years in the league, toting the ball 41 times for 195 yards and a touchdown. Even if Prosise does stay healthy, it's hard to imagine being much more than a third-down back who they can use at wide receiver considering the equity they used to acquire Penny. If there's an injury, however, Prosise could be someone who produces similar to a Chris Thompson-type player in a 8-10 touch per game role. He's a stash in dynasty formats, but that's about it.
