With the No. 56 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks selected D’Wayne “Dee” Eskridge, a wide receiver out of Western Michigan. Eskridge is going into his second season in the NFL and is looking to make a statement this year. Although his stats don’t jump out on paper, he has one of the best 40-yard dash times at 4.38 seconds. Eskridge capped off his WMU career by hauling in 34 passes for 784 yards and eight touchdowns over six games, adding 467 kickoff return yards and a score. The 24-year-old native of Bluffton, Ind. was named the…

When it comes to The Seattle Seahawks, who are some fantasy stars that you can remember? In the past ten years, you can probably think back to a few. Doug Baldwin, Tyler Lockett, D.K. Metcalf, Shaun Alexander, Russell Wilson, and that stellar Seahawks D/ST back when the Legion of Boom was around. Each year, the organization tends to have a few players you want to place in the starting lineup. Here are the top 5 Seahawks Fantasy Players from 2000 to now: Shaun Alexander Seahawk legend, Shaun Alexander was a workhorse running back for the Seattle Seahawks. Who could forget…
DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett are a matchup headache for secondaries. Only two teams in the NFL had two wide receivers top 1,000 yards last season: the Seattle Seahawks and the Carolina Panthers. Even with Rusell Wilson’s departure from Seattle, I still see these two individuals impressing fans with their stats. Think about it, you’ve got one quick, swift route. runner in Lockett who can make even the best cornerbacks look average. On the other hand, you’ve got a 6’4″ receiver who has breakaway speed, isn’t afraid of contact, and plays with a chip on his shoulder in Metcalf. From…
The deed is done. Baker Mayfield to Carolina. This leaves the Seattle Seahawks with very few options left at quarterback. Although coach Pete Carroll has hyped up Geno Smith and Drew Lock, many don’t see either of them picking up where Wilson left off. Cam Newton posted 8 games for the Carolina Panthers in 2021 and his numbers weren’t exactly what we remember from his early years there. Why Newton Could Be a Good Fit for Seattle The Seahawks need a competent quarterback who is quick on his feet, confident, and can sling the ball. Getting Newton would allow one…
Michael Dickson is undeniably one of the most entertaining punters to watch in the NFL. “Dickson went undrafted by Aussie rules teams in 2014 and then started thinking about trying to become what they call a “gridiron punter” like Sav Rocca. He knew he had one of the strongest legs in the academy, so he went online and found a program that teaches Australians to punt and kick NFL style—Prokick Australia.” Born in Sydney, Dickson first played soccer in his youth before switching to Australian rules football at the age of 9. He is now entering his fifth season in the league…
On February 11th 2022, Pete Carroll hired former Chicago Bears defensive coordinator Sean Desai as Associate Head Coach for Defense. Ryan Neil spoke very highly of Sean Desai saying, “I love him. He’s like a professor sitting in the lab all day. The things he says in meetings. It’s like I’ve never thought about that before.” Defensive players rave about Desai. They say he’s “intense”. Some even call him “doctor” because he has a Ph.D. in Education – something fascinating that you don’t hear about NFL coaches too often. What Makes Desai a Good Fit for the Seahawks? Last season,…
It’s almost that time to start phoning your buddies and setting up a fantasy league. Most fantasy football drafts take place in August just before pre-season ends so don’t panic, you’ve still got another month to narrow down your picks. Tons of trades happened this offseason that are going to leave drafts wide open for sleeper picks and a mix of different projections. But how do you get the most out of your fantasy draft? Start with RBs, lean into WRs, snag a top-tier QB with your 3rd or 4th pick, acquire more skill players, grab a solid defense around…
The team reported high levels of interest in acquiring Baker Mayfield. Although Cleveland would pick up the majority of the bill, this would be an excellent transition for both teams as Cleveland proceeds to move forward with Deshaun Watson. Although Baker Mayfield is no Russell Wilson, he still led his team to the playoffs and re-positioned the Cleveland Browns from being the laughingstock of the NFL to an actual playoff contender. Seattle could utilize a player like Baker Mayfield over the other candidates Geno Smith and Drew Lock – with all due respect, are two solid backups, but not starters…
