Sidney Rice Fantasy News

The Seattle Times - [Full Article]

Seahawks GM John Schneider said receiver Sidney Rice will be the healthiest he's ever been since entering the NFL.

Rice, who underwent a separate surgical procedure on each shoulder this offseason, he's not expected to practice in the offseason minicamps, but Schneider seemed encouraged about his prospects for the fall.

"This is the healthiest he's going to be since he's been a professional," Schneider said.

Fantasy Impact:

A healthy Rice would be a fantasy factor in 2012, especially if the Seahawks find improved QB play in the form of Matt Flynn.

Seahawks sign Matt Flynn to three-year deal worth as much as $26M
Sunday, March 18, 2012, 9:48pm

Adam Schefter, Twitter - [Full Article]

Matt Flynn has agreed to terms with the Seahawks on a contract worth up to $26M with $10M guaranteed.

Fantasy Impact:

With just two starts in his NFL career, the book on Flynn is thin, but it's a very good read. In 2010, with Aaron Rodgers sidelined due to a concussion, Flynn completed 24-for-37 passes for 251 yards, three TDs and an interception in a near-upset of the Patriots in Foxboro. Last season, with Rodgers resting in Week 17, Flynn had a record-setting day, throwing for 480 yards and six TDs (with just one pick) against the Lions in not-so-great conditions at Lambeau Field. He joins a Seattle offense that has a few good weapons in the passing game, including Sidney Rice, Doug Baldwin, Golden Tate and Zach Miller. Rice's health will be key. While Flynn doesn't have an overpowering arm, he's accurate and is very poised in the pocket. He'll likely be a middle round fantasy pick (going in the 10th-12th rounds) best suited for spot duty in a Quarterback By Committee (QBBC).

I was told Sidney Rice had surgery on BOTH his shoulders after the season, not just the one with the torn labrum.

Sidney Rice going on injured reserve, season over

WR Sidney Rice will go on IR, ending his season, Pete Carroll said. #seahawks

Fantasy Impact:

This is a tough break for Rice owners, though he hasn't exactly been lighting it up this season. Look for Ben Obomanu to take his spot in the starting lineup, but Doug Baldwin should be the main beneficiary with Rice out. He caught 13 passes for 220 yards and a TD with Rice out against the Falcons and Giants before laying a goose egg against the Browns. He has also posted 50+ receiving yards in four of his past five games.
