2018 Fantasy Football Projections: Seattle Seahawks

In addition to viewing our 2018 Fantasy Football Projections by position, we will post our preseason projections per team.

Below you will find our 2018 fantasy football projections for the Seattle Seahawks.

Quarterbacks

 

PlayerAtt.Comp.YardsTDINTRushYardsTDFLPoints
Russell Wilson529328386228.610.683.2449.32.12.7299.81
A top-three fantasy quarterback in three of the past four seasons, Wilson has rushed for 2,777 yards and 20 touchdowns in his six NFL seasons. But he's also averaged over 4,000 passing yards over the past three seasons and threw for a league-high 34 touchdowns in 2017. Despite his dual-threat abilities, Wilson has never missed an NFL game. So, in other words, he has tons of weekly upside with a solid floor.

Running Backs

 

PlayerAtt.YardsTDRec.YardsTDFLPoints
Rashaad Penny226.9998.47.927.7227.10.71.2171.75
The Seahawks used the 27th overall pick on Penny, which (of course) virtually assures that he'll be the team's featured back. With good size (5-11, 220) and speed (4.46 forty), Penny could be used as a three-down back by the Seahawks.
Chris Carson73.6331.22.211.494.60.30.257.18
If it weren't for the Seahawks using their first-round pick on Penny, Carson would have plenty of breakout potential following an injury-shortened 2017 that saw him assume lead-back responsbilities early in the season.
C.J. Prosise28.5122.60.635.133710.155.36
J.D. McKissic4.417.20.17.861.60.30.110.08
Mike Davis13.147.20.21.714.500.17.17

Wide Receivers

 

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDFLPoints
Doug Baldwin80.71045.17.31.32.900.2148.2
Falling just shy of the 1,000-yard mark last season, Baldwin has 247/3,188/29 over the past three seasons and has finished as the WR7, WR10 and WR13, respectively, in standard-scoring formats over the past three seasons.
Tyler Lockett52.9698.34.27.964.80.50.1110.31
Lockett played a full 16-game slate last season, but he was never himself although he's now 100 percent. With Paul Richardson in Washington (D.C.) and the uncertainty of what the Seahawks will get from Brandon Marshall, Lockett has breakout potential in 2018.
Brandon Marshall28285.62.80000.145.16
Marshall had a 109/1,502/14 season in 2015, but that feels so long ago. Signing a one-year deal with the Seahawks, Marshall isn't a lock to make the roster and (if he does) his fantasy outlook isn't all that appealing.
Amara Darboh27.1265.62.20000.139.56
Tanner McEvoy21.5225.81.10000.328.58
Jaron Brown8126.40.70000.116.64

Tight Ends

 

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDFLPoints
Ed Dickson32.24253.20000.161.5
With Jimmy Graham in Green Bay, Dickson signed a free-agent deal to replace him atop Seattle's depth chart. Graham had double-digit touchdowns last year and over 900 yards the year prior. Even so, expectations for Dickson, Nick Vannett or any of Seattle's tight ends are modest.
Nick Vannett13.1137.61.20000.120.76
Will Dissly661.20.50000.18.92
