Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em
Drew Brees
#3 Ranked QB
The Seahawks are currently giving up the 2nd fewest fantasy points to QBs, which might scare Brees owners. You’re starting Brees in this game because you always start your studs. The Seahawks have only faced 3 QBs in the top 15 this year. Brees steps up and finds a way to reward fantasy owners for their loyalty.
Jimmy Graham
#2 Ranked TE
You’re starting Graham because you always start Graham. However, the size and strength of the Seahawks cornerbacks could slowdown the best TE in the league. Graham is a freak! Every week he is a threat to go off.
Gut Calls
Pierre Thomas
#21 Ranked RB
Last week against the Falcons, Thomas looked awesome. He is averaging almost 15 fantasy points in last three games. Thomas shows up in “Gut Calls” because the Seahawks defense is crazy good. But with Graham and Stills stretching out the defense, Thomas will have room to run.
Kenny Stills
#63 Ranked WR
The Seahawks cornerbacks are scary, and hopefully covering Colston and Graham leaving Stills open for the deep ball. When you look at the top three WR performances against the Seahawks this is what you see: Cecil Shorts III with 14.3 points, T.Y. Hilton with 26 points and Jarius Wright with 18.9 points. The one thing they all have in common: SPEED. Kenny Stills is exactly the type of WR that has proven successful against the Seahawks defense. We like Stills more then the other WR options.
Marques Colston
#34 Ranked WR
Colston has been a fantasy disappointment this year, scoring 10 fantasy points or more only two times. He’s scored a combined 12 points in the last two games and now he gets the 4th best pass defense in the league. With Seattle and their suspension, Colston has a chance to redeem himself.
