02Scheme fit
Ideal system

This RB plays in a downhill, gap-scheme running game that emphasizes power and vision between the tackles to maximize yardage on every carry.

One-cut runnerDownhill backGoal-line back3rd down back
Best role

Year 1 as a change-of-pace back with immediate red-zone potential, with the ceiling to develop into an every-down starter.

Wrong fit

A modern spread or Air Raid offense that relies on outside zone concepts and frequent receiving contributions from its backfield.

Michael's aggressive, one-cut style and powerful build make him an excellent fit for schemes prioritizing interior runs and short-yardage situations.

04The evaluation

Selected #62 overall in Round 2 of the 2013 NFL Draft by Seattle Seahawks out of Texas A&M.
