Jaron Brown (WR, SEA) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: One of my favorite breakout candidates for the 2019 fantasy football season was Tyler Lockett of the Seattle Seahawks. After drafting DK Metcalf and losing Doug Baldwin to retirement, the WR2 role for the Seahwawks appeared to be up for grabs with […]

We Must Overreact Immediately! Week 7 Outliers

Week 7 seemed extremely fluky for fantasy football purposes. Devonta Freeman was ejected, and players like Will Fuller, Adam Thielen and Kerryon Johnson were both forced from their games very early on which hurt a lot of fantasy owners. The Rams wide receivers were supposed to light the world on fire against a Falcons secondary that […]

Week 7 is over, and a few things have changed. The Los Angeles Rams learned how to play offense again, and the New York Jets came back to Earth, among other things. Week 7 was an especially quiet week for kickers across the NFL. A lot of kickers weren't able to get on the field […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 8 Lightning Round

The better part of seven weeks is in the fantasy football books, making those early trends very real -- for better or worse. One must still consider the matchups played thus far and those to come, but usage and volume are becoming reliable. Week 8 sees the Ravens and Cowboys hit their bye week. To […]

Jaron Brown Produces 60 Yards Against The Ravens

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaron Brown caught 3-of-6 passes for 60 yards during a 30-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. The 29-year-old has averaged 41 yards per game over his past five weeks. Despite having a fantastic matchup against the Atlanta Falcons, Brown is a mid-tier WR4 at best in Week 8. […]

D.K. Metcalf Tallies 53 Yards In Week 7

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf caught 4-of-9 targets for 53 yards during a 30-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. The rookie wideout also lost a costly fumble in the fourth quarter with his team trailing by 10 points. It was a tough day for the Seahawks' offense as a whole, and […]

Tyler Lockett Hauls In Touchdown During Week 7

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett caught 5-of-7 targets for 61 yards and a touchdown during a 30-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. It looked like the 27-year-old was poised for a big day, as he had 53 yards and a touchdown at the end of the first half, but he could […]

Rashaad Penny Invisible Against The Ravens

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny did not get a single touch during a 30-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. Penny missed Week 6 due to a hamstring injury but was a full participant in practice ahead of the game against the Ravens. Chris Carson is unquestionably the feature back in the […]

Chris Carson Produces 65 Rushing Yards In Sloppy Week 7 Loss

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson tallied 65 yards on 21 carries during a 30-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. He also caught three passes for nine yards in the loss. It was a sloppy game for both offenses, as heavy rain debilitated the impact of skill players. Carson had three-straight games […]

Russell Wilson Pedestrian In Week 7 Loss

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson fell back to Earth a bit during a 30-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7. Wilson completed 20 of his 41 passes for 241 yards and a touchdown in the defeat. He also threw his first interception of the season as Marcus Peters ran a soft pass back […]

Ezekiel Ansah, Duane Brown Inactive For Seahawks

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (ankle) and left tackle Duane Brown (biceps) are both inactive for Week 7 against the Ravens. Ansah just hasn't been able to stay healthy for an entire season in his career. His absence is good news for Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson and running back Mark Ingram. Brown remains out […]

Without Will Dissly, Seahawks Could Turn To Trade Market

With Seattle Seahawks tight end Will Dissly (Achilles) done for the year, the team is likely to be heavily involved in trying to improve the position at the trade deadline, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Rapoport also says that Seattle has been using some of their backup defensive ends as tight ends in practice […]

Russell Wilson Looks To Continue Hot Streak Against The Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens Defense isn't nearly as dominant as they were a year ago. They've been involved in a couple high-scoring affairs already this season. Russell Wilson is on a roll right now, he's managed to score more than 30 fantasy points in each of his last two appearances. The Ravens are currently allowing an […]

Chris Carson Is A Locked And Loaded RB1 Until Further Notice

Chris Carson is gobbling up the running downs work in Seattle. In the last three weeks, Carson has seen no less than 26 touches in a game. Carson is a true workhorse back. He's going up against a Ravens Defense that ranks 10th against opposing rushers, but don't let that number fool you. Baltimore played […]

D.K. Metcalf Is A Low-End WR3 This Week

D.K. Metcalf has pieced together a couple of nice fantasy outings this season, but his outlook for the future is contingent on touchdowns. In games without a touchdown, Metcalf has yet to score more than 10 fantasy points in standard scoring leagues. Baltimore's secondary is exploitable, and there will be more targets to go around […]

Tyler Lockett Hopes To Pick Up Steam Against The Ravens

Tyler Lockett's out-of-this-world touchdown per catch ratio has finally caught up with him this season. Russell Wilson is distributing the ball more, and it's been at Lockett's detriment. In weeks 2 and 3, Lockett saw double-digit targets in each game and converted those into nice fantasy outings. Now that Will Dissly is out of the […]

Luke Willson Won't Fill The Gap Left By Will Dissly's Absence

Despite being the starting tight end last week, Luke Willson was only able to scrape together three targets. Baltimore is a neutral-to-slightly bad matchup for TE's, but even in a plus matchup, Willson will only be relevant if he's able to break the plane. Until he builds a track record of decent usage, Willson isn't […]

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 7

Every year and in every sport, a few teams march effortlessly towards the ultimate prize as if it's been preordained. When seemingly invincible teams like these are beaten, it's not always by the quality of their opponent but instead by their own psychological mindset. They look past a lesser opponent and fall victim to the […]

Seahawks Defense Will Have A Tough Time Containing Lamar Jackson

Aside from one poor performance in a divisional matchup against the Steelers, Lamar Jackson has been a fantasy titan. He's a dual-threat QB who's difficult to contain. The problem Baltimore faces right now is the status of Marquise Brown (ankle). If Brown doesn't play, this could pose a problem for Baltimore's passing game. Without Brown, […]
