Seattle Seahawks DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is the forgotten man in the offense. With Jaxon Smith-Njigba breaking out and DK Metcalf (shoulder) healthy, Lockett is an afterthought. Lockett was blanked on the box score in Week 14 and very well could be again in Week 15. The Seahawks host the No. 9 defense against opposing wide receivers in fantasy when the Green Bay Packers come to town in Week 15. Lockett has not garnered more than four targets in a game since Week 7. The Seahawks have consolidated targets among the running backs and the aforementioned top two wide receivers. The tactic is working as the team now sits atop the NFC West with a one-game lead. Lockett should now be on waivers for your fantasy playoff run. He is not worth taking the roster spot of a player who could help your team. As long as Lockett's volume remains this low, he will not be a fantasy option.

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers has found a lot of recent success. He has scored double-digit fantasy points in three of his last four games. Myers has not missed a field goal since Week 5, which has allowed him to avoid incurring negative points. The Seahawks will face a solid defense in the Green Bay Packers in Week 15. The Packers could make it difficult for the Seahawks to get into scoring positions, but the Seahawks defense has succeeded in giving them a lot of short fields lately. The offensive efficiency has been solid since the team's Week 10 bye so Myers should at least be in a position to kick field goals. With his accuracy and big leg, Myers has an excellent chance to reach 10 fantasy points in Week 15. 10 points from your kicker is a significant boost during the fantasy playoffs. As such, if you need potential upside, Myers is a solid kicker streamer this week.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith checks in as a QB2 in Week 15. The Seahawks will host the Green Bay Packers this week who have been tough against the pass all season. Smith has enjoyed a nice year statistically. He has thrown for 3,474 yards while completing 69.5% of his passes. He has even cut down on interceptions lately having only thrown two in the past four games. His issue has been touchdowns. Smith has only thrown 14 touchdown passes this season. That does not project to improve against an excellent Packers secondary. The Seahawks have been far more balanced on offense lately. They have not asked Smith to throw the ball more than 34 times in a game since Week 6. Seattle's defense has played better which has allowed time for the offense to operate. The Seahawks are winning games as a result. With all the recent success, do not expect the Seahawks to change their strategy. Smith has a solid baseline of 12 to 13 fantasy points. However, his upside is severely limited, especially in a tough matchup.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet could deliver another top 10 week with starter Kenneth Walker III (calf) doubtful this week. Charbonnet has now seen extended duty due to Walker's injuries on three occasions this season. He has averaged 27.3 PPR fantasy points in those games. His most recent big performance came in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals. The most encouraging part about that game was that Charbonnet was efficient as a runner and heavily involved as a receiver. His prior games in relief of Walker were buoyed by excellent pass-catching and touchdowns despite poor rushing efficiency. If Walker can keep up the efficiency in Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers, then the sky is the limit. Green Bay is No. 21 against opposing running backs in fantasy. Charbonnet is all but guaranteed an excellent passing game role so he has a chance to do a lot of damage on the ground as well. Charbonnet could be exactly what your fantasy team needs to get through the first-round of the playoffs.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (shoulder) has struggled to produce for fantasy lately. To make matters worse, he has been battling various ailments over the last few weeks including a nagging shoulder injury. He should be good to go after being removed from the injury report on Friday. Metcalf's outlook may not improve in Week 15 when the Seahawks host the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night. The Packers are No. 9 against opposing wide receivers in fantasy football and Metcalf has struggled to find room to operate downfield since he returned from a sprained MCL in Week 11. Additionally, Metcalf has not always been quarterback Geno Smith's No. 1 target this season. With Jaxon Smith-Njigba emerging as an elite option, Smith is spreading the ball around more. Lastly, Metcalf's red zone targets are down this season. After earning 1.5 red zone targets per game in 2023, Metcalf has cut that number in half to 0.73 red zone targets per game this season. That number has significantly diminished his touchdown opportunities despite his yardage and reception totals being comparable to previous seasons. Metcalf is more of low-end WR2 until he can prove reliable as a high-end option once again. However, time is running out during this fantasy football season.
