People are saying the Seahawks got better than the 49ers yesterday by adding Quenton Nelson, while the 49ers added DeForest Buckner. What they failed to realize is that when the 49ers went into Seattle and won, they did that without Nick Bosa, Marques Sigle, and Demarcus Robinson— all starters Sure Seattle will now have Quenton Nelson and Zach Charbonnet— who was out against us, but I don’t think they are the better team right now because they added Nelson while SF added Buckner

Even if active for Week 8 vs. CHI, workload remains uncertain; matchup is winnable with Quenton Nelson stabilizing interior offensive line, but continued reliance on three-RB committee limits ceiling and floor for all parties involved.

Ranked 29th in rest-of-season RB rankings. Mattek Fantasy Football projects Charbonnet to play a secondary back role similar to what Rashaad Sharps played last year. The source expresses hesitancy to rank him as high as other analysts because he has been a well below-average NFL running back, averaging just four yards per carry last season and generating production mainly via touchdowns. The source questions whether Charbonnet is better than Chadarian Price and notes the overall Seahawks offense is worse than last year, making Charbonnet's below-average efficiency more concerning. Additionally, Charbonnet had a full practice last Friday with a wrap sheet report indicating he was expected to play a ton, but he was not activated for the game, raising durability concerns.

The Seahawks are expected to keep using a rotation at RB, and the best runner will be the one who ends up fantasy relevant by the time the fantasy playoffs arrive. The source holds out some hope for Jadarian Price over Charbonnet in the long term, as Nelson's elite run-blocking upgrade should help the Seahawks' dead-last B-gap yards before contact (0.3).
