The defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks have Marshawn Lynch, Robert Turbin and potential 2014 breakout candidate Christine Michael on the roster, but that hasn’t stopped them from taking a look at an intriguing mid-round running back prospect leading up to the NFL Draft.

According to Gil Brandt on Twitter, the Seahawks are hosting Towson running back Terrance West for a visit.

West has also visited with the Baltimore Ravens, Minnesota Vikings, Tennessee Titans and Arizona Cardinals. The interest suggest that he has a real chance to be selected in the second or third-round of this year’s draft.

West may not have played his collegiate football at the highest level, but he has a skill set that could allow him to be a featured running back at the next level.

With Marshawn Lynch not getting any younger, West could be viewed as an eventual replacement in Seattle.
