Is he not worth starting anymore? I keep thinking he'll have his breakout game

Wouldn't be shocked if people start dropping him in standard leagues

I don't think Seattle will ever figure out how to utilize him. Can't be that hard, can it? Minnesota of all teams was able to do it with Christian Ponder at QB

He had 7, 5, 7 receptions the first four games. Then the game when he lost out on 2 TDs. Really, yesterday was his only really bad game in PPR leagues.

I dont own him personally, but I feel like he is a decent flex option at least

That's why I said standard league. PPR he has been decent but in standard 15 catches for 56 yards does nothing for me.

His value will remain nothing until Seattle decides to use him correctly. I don't see thAt happening though, so it's a moot point really

The funny part is people were worried about his health holding him back.

He's been good thru 6 weeks. Instead it's the offense that is holding him back

He had 3 touchdowns a week ago....he'll be alright. The whole Seattle team had a shitty day yesterday. RELAX. R-E-L-A-X. Relax.





**Yes I say this as a Harvin owner and hoping for better numbers

But why don he refuse to get him the ball downfield? I mean it's a swing pass, or its nothing.

Wilson is near the bottom of yards per attempt
Near the bottom of pass attempts
Near the bottom of yards

More a product of the offense than it is Harvin, I think. Even in Harvin's productive seasons, he was catching a lot of short passes, just with more volume and opportunity.

The Seahawks win games with what they do so his volume isnt likely to increase

I think it is more amazing that 7 yards per attempt is only good enough for 20th in the league. There is no way RW ends up there. His career YPA is 7.9. He's going to get better, but only if they use harvin as an actual wide receiver.

It is a pretty bleak situation for harvin though

There's got to be times (as much as they move him around) where's he's matched up on a LB. They've got to get him the ball.

I watched pretty much all the last Seahawk games. I don't remember him catching the ball at all past 3 yards beyond the L.O.S.

Justin Durant was on him a few times yesterday. Harvin beat him on a post corner but Wilson was too busy twirling and doing 360s in the pocket
