Seattle Seahawks 2019 Fantasy Football Projections

In addition to viewing our 2019 Fantasy Football Projections by position, we will post our preseason projections per team.

Below you will find our 2019 fantasy football projections for the Seattle Seahawks.

 

QUARTERBACKS

 

Player	Att.	Comp.	Yards	TD	INT	Rush	Yards	TD	Points
Russell Wilson	461.2	295.2	3643.5	29.52	8.53	67.6	371.8	2.03	296.12
Not only were Wilson's pass attempts (427) a five-year low, but his rushing attempts (67) were a career low and he failed to rush for a touchdown for the first time in his career. Even so, Wilson finished the season as fantasy's QB9. Before 2018, Wilson ended the year as a top-three QB in three of four seasons and he has finished as a top-12 quarterback every year of his career. Even though Wilson ranked 20th in pass attempts, only Patrick Mahomes and Andrew Luck threw more touchdowns than Wilson (35). While his career-best 8.2 TD% was more than two full percentage points above his career average (6.0 TD%), Wilson has thrown at least 34 touchdowns in three of the past four seasons.

RUNNING BACKS

 

Player	Att.	Yards	TD	Rec.	Yards	TD	Points
Chris Carson	227.9	1002.8	7.41	24.6	200.5	0.49	167.73
Dominating running back touches over first-round rookie Rashaad Penny, Carson toted the rock 247 times for 1,151 yards and nine touchdowns and added 20 catches for 163 more over 14 games. The disparity in workload between Carson (267 touches, 73.96%) and Penny (94, 26.04%) won't be as large as it was last year, but I'd expect Carson to still get the larger share of the workload in one of the league's most run-heavy attacks.
Rashaad Penny	171.6	789.4	4.72	20.8	170.6	0.42	126.84
In better shape than last year, Penny was on the short end of last year's 74-26 split in workload with Carson, but that margin should narrow in 2019. Earlier this year, coach Pete Carroll said of the Carson-Penny duo that "I don't know who's one and who's two, it doesn't matter to me." Given his first-round pedigree, Penny has enormous upside in Seattle's run-first attack even if he enters the season as Carson's backup.
J.D. McKissic	10	39	0.2	17.9	139.6	0.94	24.7
Travis Homer	11.3	47.5	0.23	1.7	14.5	0.03	7.76

WIDE RECEIVERS

 

Player	Rec.	Yards	TD	Rush	Yards	TD	Points
Tyler Lockett	72.4	1017.2	6.7	11.3	59.3	0.34	149.89
Despite a consistent level of targets -- 66 to 71 -- in all four of his seasons, Lockett posted career highs in receptions (57), yards (965) and touchdowns (10) as he shattered previous career highs in catch rate (81.4%), yards per reception (16.9) and yards per game (60.3). While those ratios may regress closer to the mean, Lockett's target volume is all but assured to increase at the same time given Doug Baldwin's retirement.
David Moore	38.7	561.2	4.64	1.3	6.5	0.01	84.67
When given the opportunity, Moore was highly effective -- 17.1 Y/R and a TD per every 5.2 receptions last year. The expected bump in volume gives Moore some upside and makes him a decent late-round sleeper to target.
D.K. Metcalf	30.6	477.4	4.13	2.5	15	0.03	74.2
A size-speed freak (6-3, 228, 4.33 forty, 40.5-inch vertical), Metcalf's field-stretching abilities are a good fit with Russell Wilson, who said during minicamp that Metcalf was "looking really, really special." In addition, Wilson praised Metcalf's "knowledge of the game" as the first thing that stands out with the rookie receiver. In Seattle's low-volume passing attack, Metcalf is a better target in best-ball formats than he is season-long leagues.
Gary Jennings	22.7	249.7	1.14	0	0	0	31.81
Jaron Brown	11.8	144	1.42	0	0	0	22.92
John Ursua	6	70.8	0.42	0	0	0	9.6

TIGHT ENDS

 

Player	Rec.	Yards	TD	Rush	Yards	TD	Points
Will Dissly	24.9	259	2.49	0	0	0	40.84
Dissly had a monster first week (3/105/1), but the rookie tore his patellar tendon in Week 4. There is "no doubt" that he will be ready for the start of the regular season, but it's unlikely that he provides consistent fantasy-relevant production in 2019.

2018 Fantasy Football Projections: Seattle Seahawks

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

Quarterbacks

 

Player	Att.	Comp.	Yards	TD	INT	Rush	Yards	TD	FL	Points
Russell Wilson	526.4	325.3	3816	27.6	10.5	85.4	461.2	2.6	2.7	298.36
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 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

 

Player	Att.	Yards	TD	Rec.	Yards	TD	FL	Points
Rashaad Penny	165	717.8	5.3	25.9	212.4	0.7	1	127.02
Penny had a good combination of size (5-11, 220) and speed (4.46 forty) before recently ballooning to 236 pounds. Gaining so much weight between the NFL Scouting Combine and the start of the regular season is alarming. Given his draft pedigree, Penny could eventually be used as a three-down back for the Seahawks. For now, however, Chris Carson is clearly ahead of him on the depth chart heading into the 2018 NFL season.
Chris Carson	161.8	711.9	5.8	18.7	155.2	0.6	0.3	124.51
A sleeper pick in 2017, Carson was off to a promising start before his injury forced him to miss the final 12 games of the season. Even though the Seahawks drafted Rashaad Penny in the first round, Carson is still a potential breakout candidate. Penny has missed time with a broken finger, but Carson was already atop the depth chart prior to the injury.
C.J. Prosise	20.3	87.3	0.4	35.1	337	1	0.1	50.63
Mike Davis	9.5	34.2	0.1	1.3	11.1	0	0.1	4.93

Wide Receivers

 

Player	Rec.	Yards	TD	Rush	Yards	TD	FL	Points
Doug Baldwin	81.9	1060.6	7.4	1.4	3.1	0	0.2	150.37
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. There was some concern about Baldwin's status for Week 1 earlier on, but Carroll says that he "should be" available for the season opener. That said, Baldwin said his knee will never be 100 percent and that he's currently in the 80-85 percent range.
Tyler Lockett	57.3	756.4	4.6	8.1	66.4	0.5	0.1	118.68
Lockett played a full 16-game slate last season, but he was never 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 now that he's healthy.
Brandon Marshall	43.6	449.1	5.2	0	0	0	0.1	75.91
Marshall had a 109/1,502/14 season in 2015, but that feels so long ago. There has some positive comments coming out of Seahawks camp regarding Marshall and he could see a decent amount of targets in the red zone.
Jaron Brown	18.1	286	1.6	0	0	0	0.1	38
David Moore	7.9	102.7	0.6	0	0	0	0	13.87

Tight Ends

Nick Vannett	27.9	293	2.5	0	0	0	0.1	44.1
Jimmy Graham had double-digit touchdowns last year and over 900 yards the year prior, but expectations for Vannett, Ed Dickson or any of Seattle's tight end should be relatively modest.
Ed Dickson	17.9	236.3	1.8	0	0	0	0.1	34.23
Dickson (quad) will miss at least the first six games as the Seahawks placed on him on the reserve/NFI list.

Player	Att.	Yards	TD	Rec.	Yards	TD	FL	Points
Rashaad Penny	180.8	786.5	6	27	221.4	0.8	1	139.59
With good size (5-11, 220) and speed (4.46 forty), Penny could eventually be used as a three-down back for the Seahawks. At least to open training camp, however, it's Chris Carson -- not Penny -- that tops the team's depth chart. While Penny will more than likely lead the backfield in workload and production at some point, surgery on a broken finger could further delay what appears to be the inevitable.
Chris Carson	140.1	616.4	4.9	14.5	120.4	0.4	0.3	104.88
A sleeper pick in 2017, Carson was off to a promising start, but he missed the final 12 games. Even though the Seahawks drafting Rashaad Penny in the first round has held some back from touting Carson as a breakout candidate in 2018, the second-year back has sat atop the team's depth chart since the start of camp.
C.J. Prosise	22.6	97.2	0.5	36.9	354.2	1	0.1	53.94

Brandon Marshall	36.8	379	4.4	0	0	0	0.1	64.1
Marshall had a 109/1,502/14 season in 2015, but that feels so long ago. Signing a one-year deal (with not much money guaranteed) with the Seahawks, Marshall isn't a lock to make the roster and (if he does) his fantasy outlook isn't all that appealing. That said, there has some positive comments coming out of Seahawks camp regarding Marshall.

The Seahawks used the 27th overall pick on Penny, which (of course) 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 Carson	74.5	327.8	2.4	11.4	94.6	0.3	0.2	58.04
