Deeper PPR Sleepers Heading Into Week 2
As is tradition, Week 1 provided the usual head-scratching performances we've grown accustomed to start the year. Matthew Stafford looked discombobulated, the Amari Cooper rebound year did not get off to a good start, and LeSean McCoy looks hopeless in Buffalo. All these disappointments aside, we did end up with some positive takeaways. Here you'll find your […]
Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 2
Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]
C.J. Prosise May Be Moved To Receiver
Seattle Seahawks running back C.J. Prosise may be moved to receiver with the team hurting at the position with Doug Baldwin (knee) expected to miss a couple of weeks. “We’ve been talking about it,” head coach Pete Carroll told reporters on Tuesday. “He does have the background [with] a couple years in college.” Prosise is […]
Doug Baldwin Could Miss A Couple Weeks
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) could be a out "a couple weeks" after suffering a Grade 2 partial MCL tear in his right knee in Week 1 against the Broncos. The Seahawks aren't expecting to have Baldwin available in Week 2 on Monday night against the Bears or […]
Keenan Reynolds Added To Active Roster
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said the team has added wide receiver Keenan Reynolds to the active roster from the practice squad with Doug Baldwin (knee) possibly out a couple of weeks. Reynolds will strictly be providing depth to a thin receiving corps and isn't an option for fantasy owners. Tyler Lockett will be […]
Chris Carson Solidifies Spot As Lead Back
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said running back Chris Carson "really took the lead at that position" in Week 1 against the Broncos, while the coach said rookie Rashaad Penny "looked a little rusty." Carson was the clear top back in training camp and the preseason, while Penny missed valuable repetitions with his finger […]

Week 2 Wide Receivers - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
Welcome to my Week 2 Wide Receiver Waiver Wire additions column. I am excited to add this article to my bag of tricks for the 2018 season. Working the waiver wire is one of, if not the most important aspect to winning a fantasy football league. The one piece of advice I need to give […]
Week 2 Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
Week 1 was not a memorable opening week for NFL tight ends. While New England’s Rob Gronkowski got off to a great start (123 yards and a TD), other top tight ends were not as fortunate. Greg Olsen, Delanie Walker and David Njoku suffered injuries, Zach Ertz dropped passes like he was Amari Cooper, while Evan […]

Doug Baldwin Has Grade 2 MCL Tear
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) was diagnosed with a Grade 2 partial tear of his MCL, according to a source. The team is still trying to determine how much time he will miss. Baldwin didn't have a single catch in Week 1 against the Broncos before leaving the game and will likely miss […]
K.J. Wright Unlikely To Return In Week 2
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said linebacker K.J. Wright (knee) will run hard for the first time in practice on Monday, but Carroll said it would be a "miraculous return" if Wright played in Week 2 against the Bears next Monday. Rookie linebacker Shaquem Griffin would likely receiver another start with Wright not expected […]
Rashaad Penny Quiet In Debut
Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Rashaad Penny got just as many carries on Sunday as starter Chris Carson, but the two had very different days. While Carson averaged over seven YPC, Penny totaled just eight yards and looked overmatched. Penny was the team's first-round draft pick and is thus considered to be the starter-in-waiting, but […]
Will Dissly Has Huge Week 1
Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Will Dissly was supposed to mostly be a blocking tight end, but he led the team in receiving yards in his very first pro game. Dissly did most of his damage on a massive 66-yard catch-and-run that led to a Seattle field goal, and he also grabbed a 15-yarder for […]
Brandon Marshall Leads Seahawks In Targets
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Brandon Marshall was thought to be over the hill by the majority of the NFL, but it looks like Seattle intends on getting plenty of mileage out of the 34-year-old. Marshall led the team in targets in Week 1 with six, and his three catches included a critical touchdown grab on […]
Earl Thomas Possibly Open To Staying In Seattle
Seattle Seahawks free safety Earl Thomas played in Seattle's Week 1 game against Denver after ending his lengthy holdout days earlier, and he made his presence felt by snagging an interception in the game. After the game, Thomas unsurprisingly told reporters that he had come back because he and his agent realized the money that […]
Bradley McDougald Headlines Strong Defensive Effort
Seattle Seahawks safety Bradley McDougald was the star on defense against the Denver Broncos in Week 1. McDougald snagged a pair of picks in the game, and returned one of those 39 yards to help set up a critical Seahawks touchdown. McDougald has solidified his spot as the team’s starting strong safety, and he’ll be […]
Russell Wilson A Mixed Bag In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson had an up-and-down game against Denver in Week 1. The good news is that he threw for 298 yards, three touchdowns, and finished the day with a 92.7 quarterback rating. The bad news is that he also threw two ugly picks and was sacked six times. Wilson should be one […]
Brandon Marshall (WR, SEA) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Brandon Marshall showed he still has something left in the tank, catching three of six targets for 46 yards and a touchdown. He also caught another touchdown pass, but was flagged for offensive pass interference. Marshall shouldn't be overlooked due […]
Chris Carson Shows Off His Ups
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson led the way on the ground against the Broncos on Sunday, and his performance included a highlight-reel run and lowlight-reel fumble. Carson averaged more than seven yards per carry, but the coaching staff limited him to just seven carries on the day for unknown reasons. His hurdle of Brandon […]
Will Dissly (TE, SEA) - Week 2 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If we were to make a bet before Week 1, and I said one receiver for the Seattle Seahawks would have three catches for 105 yards and a touchdown, I guarantee you wouldn’t have said it would be Will Dissly. However, here we […]
Doug Baldwin Has MCL Sprain
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) is dealing with an MCL sprain after leaving the game in Week 1 against the Broncos. Baldwin didn't even record a catch in the season opener and was a bust for his fantasy owners. The silver lining here is the injury was to […]
Doug Baldwin Out For Rest Of Week 1
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin has been ruled out for the rest of the team's Week 1 game with the Broncos after hurting his right knee. This is not the same knee Baldwin had trouble with in the preseason, so hopes are high for next week, but for now, Seattle will have to roll […]
Earl Thomas Active Against Broncos
Seattle Seahawks strong safety Earl Thomas is active in Week 1 against the Broncos. Thomas was expected to play in the season opener despite reporting last week after a contract holdout. His presence is good news for Seattle's secondary, but the Legion of Boom is no more and the Seahawks defense/special teams is now more […]
