QUARTERBACKS
| Player | Att. | Comp. | Yards | TD | INT | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Geno Smith | 538.3 | 366 | 4010.3 | 27.45 | 10.23 | 65.6 | 305 | 1.8 | 291.05 |
| Drew Lock | 34.4 | 20.5 | 239.1 | 1.34 | 0.88 | 5.6 | 19.6 | 0.11 | 15.78 |
Geno Smith: Vastly outperforming his 2022 ADP, Smith led the NFL in completion percentage (69.8%) while throwing for 4,282 yards, 30 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. A repeat top-five fantasy finish may be unlikely, but Smith is a viable QB1 type, especially with the Seahawks drafting Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the first round to complement their dynamic duo of D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. So, in other words, he's undervalued compared his ADP once again.
RUNNING BACKS
| Player | Att. | Yards | TD | Rec. | Yards | TD | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kenneth Walker III | 201 | 884.4 | 6.73 | 32.7 | 233.7 | 1.3 | 176.34 |
| Zach Charbonnet | 145.9 | 627.4 | 4.38 | 21.8 | 163.6 | 0.9 | 121.68 |
| DeeJay Dallas | 15.6 | 67.9 | 0.39 | 9.5 | 65.9 | 0.3 | 22.27 |
| Kenny McIntosh | 11.1 | 47.7 | 0.27 | 5.4 | 38.2 | 0.2 | 14.11 |
Kenneth Walker III: Walker rushed for 1,050 yards and nine touchdowns on 228 carries as a rookie. Expectations shot up following (Rashaad Penny's departure in) NFL free agency, but the Seahawks drafting a talented complement (Zach Charbonnet) in the second round should temper expectations. Walker finished 2022 as fantasy's RB16 in half-PPR scoring, and a similar level of production is most likely in 2023. Walker had been dealing with a groin injury, but he's returned to practicing in full.
Zach Charbonnet: The second-round pick was highly productive for the UCLA Bruins, and he has the skill set to be a foundation back. Unfortunately, Seattle is not an ideal landing spot for his 2023 fantasy outlook with Charbonnet expected to operate as the 1B to Walker's 1A in Seattle's ground attack. Given how much Pete Carroll would prefer to run the ball, however, there is a chance that he could approach stand-alone flex-level value even if Walker stays healthy for a full season.
WIDE RECEIVERS
| Player | Rec. | Yards | TD | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| D.K. Metcalf | 78.3 | 1053.9 | 7.1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 187.14 |
| Tyler Lockett | 80.4 | 956.1 | 6.6 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 175.41 |
| Jaxon Smith-Njigba | 65.5 | 771.3 | 5.3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 141.68 |
| Dareke Young | 5.8 | 70.1 | 0.4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 12.31 |
| Jake Bobo | 4.6 | 55.2 | 0.4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 10.22 |
| Cody Thompson | 3.9 | 42.5 | 0.3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 8 |
| Dee Eskridge | 1.9 | 17 | 0.1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 3.25 |
| Ra'Shaun Henry | 1 | 10.6 | 0.1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 2.16 |
D.K. Metcalf: Metcalf has a minimum of 900 receiving yards in all four of his NFL seasons. While he finished with only six touchdowns (despite ranking third in the NFL in red zone targets) last season, he had a combined 22 scores in the previous two seasons and he set career highs in targets (141) and receptions (90) in 2022.
Tyler Lockett: Lockett has exceeded 1,000 receiving yards in four consecutive seasons, and he has scored eight or more touchdowns in five consecutive seasons. Consistently outperforming his preseason ADP, Lockett has finished as fantasy's WR13 (2022), WR13 (2021), WR9 (2020), WR14 (2019) and WR15 (2018), respectively. While the team drafted Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the first round, it's likely that Lockett continues to exceed expectations.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba: While he lacks elite straight-line speed, Smith-Njigba posted combine-best performances in both the 3-cone (6.57 seconds) and 20-yard shuttle (3.93), and he's a polished route runner with outstanding ball skills and body control. He set the Big Ten receiving record in 2021 (1,606 yards) while playing alongside Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson, and ESPN's Dan Graziano has referred to him as a "legitimate sleeper candidate for Offensive Rookie of the Year." After undergoing wrist surgery, JSN returned to practice sooner than expected and now seems likely for Week 1.
TIGHT ENDS
| Player | Rec. | Yards | TD | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Noah Fant | 38.8 | 393.1 | 2.9 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 76.11 |
| Will Dissly | 28.8 | 295.3 | 2.2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 57.13 |
| Colby Parkinson | 8.1 | 82.9 | 0.6 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 15.94 |
Noah Fant: In his first season as a Seahawk, Fant finished the year with 50 catches for 486 yards and four touchdowns. It was his third-consecutive season with 50-plus catches and he tied a career high in touchdowns, but he set career lows in yards and yards per reception (9.7). Adding first-round rookie receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba could make it challenging for Fant and the team's tight ends to have fantasy-viable production.
