There is at least one fic with Ron as a very good Seeker - points at 
Ebony ;)

Well part of this stems from Ron having two brothers who are very 
good Seaters and one who was a Seeker "who could have played for 
England if he had not gone off chasing dragons'. Charlie was also 
Quidditch Captain. So the idea is that this talent runs in the family 
and Ron will also be good at the sport.
