Draft note

by John Paulsen

The Seahawks “let Russ cook” in the first half of the 2020 season, and Wilson responded with an average of 310 yards passing and 3.1 touchdowns per game. He was the No. 3 fantasy quarterback at that point, but after the Seahawks lost back-to-back games against the Bills and Rams, Pete Carroll and Co. reined Wilson in, and his numbers dropped precipitously. He averaged 26.5 PPG in the first 10 games and 17.4 PPG in the final seven, while his pass attempts dropped from 37.1 to 32.0 and his touchdowns dropped from 3.1 per game to 1.7. Wilson is always a solid fantasy starter, but he doesn’t have overall QB1 upside if the Seahawks still want to be a run-oriented team.

Seahawks Beat: Offense is playing faster

Seattle Times

Aug 09 · 6:53 PM EDT

The informal unveiling of the Seahawks’ new offense could not have gone much better Sunday. Russell Wilson and the No. 1 offense needed just three minutes to cover 82 yards on eight plays, an opening drive that ended with a Chris Carson 1-yard touchdown run.

Wilson acknowledged after the mock game that he essentially called all the plays at the line of scrimmage during the opening drive.

This is what Wilson wanted all along.

Fantasy Impact:

Wilson has expressed a desire to get the offense going faster, the story said. Over the past two seasons, the offense was often at its best in no-huddle, two-minute situations. But a counter to this is when it doesn't work and it puts more pressure on the Seahawks defense when the offense plays fast and goes three-and-out. The story added HC Pete Carroll likely won't stand for that so it so it will be interesting to see how much patience he has.

SEA QB Russell Wilson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs Titans

Now that's the Russell Wilson we know and love. Four touchdown passes against the Colts and Wilson is back on track. Here's hoping that continues against the Titans, who got absolutely shredded by Kyler Murray in Week 1. Wilson is back among the top options this week at the quarterback position and a very good DFS option as well in Week 2. Let Russ cook.
