BALLER MOVE: Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end QB1
ANALYSIS: Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is having another resurgent season. He was QB5 in 2022, and despite a down year last year, now has a new offensive staff that is better for him and the team. Smith had 395 passing yards, one touchdown and one interception along with 38 rushing yards in Week 4.
Smith leads the league in passing yards after four games. He has a nice array of weapons with wide receivers D.K. Metcalf, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett all being productive and running backs Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet all contributing. New offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb has been excellent.

Smith has been excellent this year. His production isn't empty, and it is the result of his receivers carrying all the burden while he coasts off their greatness. Geno has played great football, routinely making more out of the play than the defense gives him.

He doesn't have huge rushing upside like Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson and isn't throwing multiple touchdowns a game like Sam Darnold, but he's a fundamentally good player at his position and can be relied on to deliver solid numbers. He's QB8 on the season and has a soft matchup with the New York Giants coming up.
Smith should be started in all leagues.
