With the departure of Shaun Alexander, free agent Julius Jones will take over as the lead runner for the Seattle Seahawks. The 26 year old Jones is ready for a fresh start in Seattle after falling behind Marion Barber in Dallas.
Seattle also signed TJ Duckett in the offseason. Duckett had a history of stealing goal line carries early in his career, but his carries dropped significantly over the last two years after leaving the Atlanta Falcons.
Jones could be a nice option as the third option at running back this year. Seattle also signed Pro Bowl offensive guard Mike Wahle, who should help improve the renovated running game. Jones had only 588 yards and 2 touchdowns last year on 164 carries, the most unproductive season of his career.
