Not really.
Honestly, Blake Bell's measurables are comparable and he's a heck of an athletic guy for his size as well. Seals-Jones has a straight line speed advantage but Bell is more agile, IMO. And Bell's a little stronger and probably a better blocker.
I'm not sure he's a clear upgrade on Bell, to be honest. But he's different. Yelder and Bell are very similar guys where Seals-Jones may just provide a wrinkle with his deep speed that Bell didn't and Yelder won't.
I think Yelder's why they took a flyer on Seals-Jones. I'd give him no better than 60-40 odds to make the team but if he does, he has some unique skills that Reid can put to use.
