Arian Foster was almost drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in 2009

he also writes terrible twitter poetry

ok?

pretty interesting actually

who gives a s**t? you think he would have amount to anything with the seahawks? he is a system RB, just like the old broncos RB's. look at ben tate, steve slaton, dominick davis, and every other RB the texans plug in: they all produce.

this is a non-story and means nothing. foster would be a nobody on the seahawks

ehh, Foster had 1 season and then he is touted as a top 5 back. Lets see him do it over a 3-4 years like Gore and then lets talk.

I'm pretty sure he was almost drafted by other teams besides the seahawks

I disagree. Foster had tremendous talent coming out of Tennesse. I thought he was a big-time prospect in terms of talent, but other things clearly dragged him down. I was dumbfounded that he didn't get drafted.


Dominick was a sensational RB before injury, and I don't think they ran the same system back then that they do now. Slaton was OK.. But not that good. Whatever the "system" was sure didn't help prevent him from getting cut and ending up on the terrible Dolphins. Ben Tate was another very strong RB prospect (there's a reason he went in the 2nd round), so him having some strong success filling in for Foster is anything but surprising to me.

I don't know, french. I just have to disagree with that assessment. What I think most can agree on though is -- it doesn't matter really. The past is the past. Lynch has done less in Seattle than he did in Buffalo, Foster probably would be worse in Seattle too.

saw that in this video a few days ago
