Panthers have signed rookie RB Lache Seastrunk to the practice squad.

Redskins' 6th-round pick led Big 12 in rushing last season at Baylor.

Apparently the kid was good in the preseason...

STRENGTHS

 Quick-footed and nifty with very good competitive speed to pull away in the open field. Deceptively fast. Keeps his feet churning on contact and can elude the first tackler and power through arm tackles. Runs low to the ground with good lower-body strength. Weaves through traffic and has a knack for hitting cutback lanes. Very good run balance to stop and start. Had the best vertical jump (41 1/2 inches) and broad jump (11-2) of any back at the combine.

 

WEAKNESSES  Does not run big or keep his shoulders squared to the line. Will press and try to do too much -- can improve patience and do a better job of letting his blocks develop. Very limited career receiving production. Played in an offense that featured big running lanes and helped inflate his production. Can be tracked down from behind. Beats to the tune of his own drum and can be susceptible to hanger-ons. DRAFT

PROJECTION  Rounds 4-5

BOTTOM LINE  Good-sized, productive, zone runner with enough physical traits to warrant consideration as a complementary back. Benefited from an offense featuring a lot of fly sweeps and lateral runs that have not translated well to the NFL game. Overall character will require closer evaluation and can determime draft status.

I wanted him in the draft. Lets gooooo

I wonder if this is just a temporary thing until Fozzy returns.

[LinvilleGorge]

Okay.  I ain't even mad.  He doesn't really seem to fit our offense though, but with that said, Gettleman really seems to want to find a scat-back type guy so maybe the coaches have something in mind if they can find that guy.

Fozzy's on the 53 man roster so this doesn't effect him

he's been good ever since he came out of Texas high school football as a highly-touted 5-star recruit. Got injured last year at Baylor so missed a lot of the national attention he would have gotten had he stayed healthy all season

Really like this signing. 

[TimTom]

I like the kid, can't believe he didn't make a roster.

[Cary Kollins]

[davos]

Cool name.  Great collegiate play.  Redskins were deep with Morris and Helu but that Redd Jr. kid did beat him out.
