Fantasy Impact:

Rawls will finally take over as the starting running back of the Seahawks in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams' defense was gashed in the season opener by Carlos Hyde and Shaun Draughn and could have their hands full with Rawls. Rawls should be considered a mid-range RB2 in the contest who could break the 100-yard plateau and score in this week's solid matchup.
