Latest Updates |
Seahawks trim fat from roster Saturday
|
Updated 9/5/2009 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: The Seahawks released/terminated S Jamar Adams, DE Baraka Atkins, K Brandon Coutu, CB Marquis Floyd, S Courtney Greene, WR Mike Hass, CB Kevin Hobbs, FB David Kirtman, RB Devin Moore, CB Nate Ness, TE Joe Newton, WR Logan Payne, LB Dave Philistin, QB Jeff Rowe, WR Courtney Taylor, WR Jordan Kent, LB D.D. Lewis and S Brian Russell on Saturday. | Analysis: Coutu lost out to Olindo Mare for the kicking job and can be ignored in all Fantasy formats like all these other guys. |
Seahawks receivers battle for spot
|
Updated 8/4/2009 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: With veteran Seahawks receivers T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Nate Burleson, Deion Branch and rookie Deon Butler virtual locks to make the roster, there appear to be seven receivers competing for the final two spots. In Monday evening's practice, Seahawks WR Ben Obomanu looked sharp as he juked CB Marquis Floyd twice. "Sometimes it helps to run a bad route (several plays before)," Obomanu said. "These guys are always going for the interception, and you can get them on a counter-route." Obomanu, who's competing with Courtney Taylor, Jordan Kent and Michael Bumpus -- among others -- for the final two roster spots, said this about the position battle: "You have to realize the coaches watch everything from how you carry yourself to how you run your routes." | Analysis: Keep an eye on who wins the job, but none of these guys have much Fantasy value this season unless the starters get hurt. Leave them out of your plans on Draft Day. |
Seahawks name Week 15 inactives
|
Updated 12/14/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: The Seahawks listed K Brandon Coutu, LB Leroy Hill, DL Red Bryant, WR Jordan Kent and DL Brandon Miller among their inactives for Week 15 at St. Louis. | Analysis: None of these player ever does enough statistically to matter in Fantasy. Leave them all on waivers. |
Seven Seahawks go statless
|
Updated 12/7/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seahawks WR Koren Robinson, RB Justin Forsett, FB Owen Schmitt, WR Jordan Kent, WR Courtney Taylor, RB Julius Jones and QB Charlie Frye all dressed for Seattle's Week 14 loss to the Patriots, but failed to record an offensive stat. | Analysis: Robinson and Jones have some minimal Fantasy value, but only Jones should be considered in Fantasy play for Week 15 at St. Louis if he isn't benched. Ignore everyone else in this list. |
Seattle lists Week 13 inactives
|
Updated 11/27/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seattle's inactives for Week 13 at Dallas include: QB Charlie Frye, K Brandon Coutu, DB C.J. Wallace, DT Red Bryant, WR Jordan Kent and DE Brandon Miller. | Analysis: None of these players should be used even when active. Keep them all reserved in Week 13. |
Seahawks list Week 12 inactives
|
Updated 11/23/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seattle has listed the following players as being inactive for Week 12 against the Washington Redskins: QB Charlie Frye (3rd QB), K Brandon Coutu, DB C.J. Wallace, WR Jordan Kent, TE Jeb Putzier and DL Brandon Miller. | Analysis: None of these players does enough statistically to matter in Fantasy even when healthy. Leave them all on waivers. |
Four Seahawks held statless Week 11
|
Updated 11/16/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seahawks RB Justin Forsett, WR Jordan Kent, TE Will Heller and QB Seneca Wallace all dressed, but failed to record an offensive stat Week 11 vs. Arizona. | Analysis: Wallace was the Seahawks starting quarterback the last few weeks with Matt Hasselbeck sidelined, but Hasselbeck returned to action Week 11 and that meant Wallace was back on the bench. Most of these players are reserves for Seattle and have little to no Fantasy appeal. Seattle plays Washington Week 12. |
Five Seahawks held statless Week 9
|
Updated 11/2/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seahawks WR Keary Colbert, RB Justin Forsett, WR Jordan Kent, TE Jeb Putzier and QB Charlie Frye all dressed, but failed to record an offensive stat Week 9 against the Eagles. | Analysis: Most of these players are reserves for the Seahawks or play a marginal role on offense when in the starting lineup. They barely factor on the stat sheet and have little to no Fantasy value heading into Week 10 against the Dolphins. |
Four Seahawks don't record stats
|
Updated 10/27/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seahawks WR Jordan Kent, TE Jeff Robinson, TE Jeb Putzier and QB Charlie Frye didn't record offensive statistics Week 9 at San Francisco. | Analysis: None of these players ever does enough statistically to matter in Fantasy. Leave them all on waivers. |
Seahawks list Week 6 inactives
|
Updated 10/12/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: The Seahawks listed the following players as inactive for Week 6 vs. Green Bay: K Brandon Coutu, QB Matt Hasselbeck, DL Red Bryant, WR Jordan Kent, WR Deion Branch, TE Jeb Putzier and DL Baraka Atkins. | Analysis: Aside from Hasselbeck and Branch, none of the players on this list should be considered viable Fantasy option. They are not in a position to contribute regular stats as they aren't in line for regular playing time. They've got some depth chart climbing to do and should be left on the waiver wire. |
Seattle WRs change places Wed.
|
Updated 10/8/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seattle released receiver Courtney Taylor, who started the season opener, on Wednesday and promoted receiver Jordan Kent from the practice squad. Taylor cleared waivers and was signed to the practice squad. | Analysis: The Seahawks need some able bodies at receiver since they are all banged up, but Kent likely will play just a marginal role at this time. It's still safe to ignore him and Taylor in Fantasy. |
Seahawks release Forsett, Kent
|
Updated 9/9/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seattle released RB Justin Forsett and WR Jordan Kent on Tuesday. Kent's release leaves Seattle with only two healthy wide receivers heading into Sunday's game against San Francisco - Courtney Taylor and Logan Payne. Seattle is expected to try to sign a veteran receiver before Sunday's game, with Nate Burleson out for the season, and Deion Branch and Bobby Engram not expected back for a few more weeks. | Analysis: Neither Forsett nor Kent were considered viable Fantasy options because they weren't going to play much. Even if they sign elsewhere, they are still not players to consider in Fantasy. |
Burleson out for the season
|
Updated 9/8/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seahawks WR Nate Burleson has been ruled out for the season after tearing ligaments in his left knee during Seattle's Week 1 loss to the Bills. | Analysis: OK, hands up who can name the top three healthy WRs in Seattle right now? Don't worry, you're not alone. Currently, they are Courtney Taylor, Jordan Kent and Logan Payne. Bobby Engram and Deion Branch are recovering from their respective injuries, but Engram isn't expected back until October while Branch is probably a week or two away from returning. Drop Burleson in all formats and if you're a gambler, take a flier on whichever of those three names I listed you think can make a Fantasy impact in Week 2 against the 49ers. |
Five Seahawks go statless
|
Updated 9/7/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seahawks TE Jeb Putzier, QB Seneca Wallace, RB T.J. Duckett, WR Jordan Kent and TE Will Heller all dressed for Seattle's Week 1 loss to the Bills but did not record an offensive statistic. | Analysis: Duckett is the only player in this group with any real Fantasy value and he could get some more carries in Week 2 against the 49ers if Maurice Morris is injured. Ignore the rest. |
Seattle counting on unknowns at WR
|
Updated 9/3/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: The Seahawks are counting on Courtney Taylor, Jordan Kent and Logan Payne to help the ailing receiving corps. Kent and Payne were both on the Seahawks' practice squad last year and never appeared in a game. Barring a sudden improvement in the health of veteran Deion Branch, they'll be making their NFL debuts Sunday. That opportunity has come about in large part because of major injuries to three of the four Seahawks receivers who figured to get the most playing time this season. Branch had knee surgery and is working his way back after not playing in exhibition games nor practicing in training camp. Coach Mike Holmgren had hoped to have Branch back this week. But Branch didn't take part in Monday's short practice and his status is unknown. Bobby Engram is out for at least the first two games to rehabilitate a cracked shoulder bone, and Ben Obomanu is lost for the season with a broken collarbone suffered in the exhibition finale. | Analysis: Taylor should get the biggest boost in playing time because he's the most experienced. For now, though, ignore all three and see how Taylor, Kent and Payne do in their season debut against the Bills. If any of them play well, consider adding them off the waiver wire. |
Kent scores second preseason TD
|
Updated 8/26/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seahawks WR Jordan Kent scored on a 12-yard touchdown reception from Charlie Frye in the fourth quarter of Monday's 18-17 preseason loss to the Chargers. Kent finished the game with a team-high four catches and 47 yards. His longest reception went for 21 yards. | Analysis: The second-year wide receiver from Oregon is trying to entering the Seahawks rotation since injuries have sidelined Deion Branch and Bobby Engram. Kent has done a nice job in the preseason with nine catches for 115 yards and two touchdowns. At this rate, he could make the team and end up turning heads in-season. Still, Kent is not worth drafting in most Fantasy formats. If that changes, we will let you know. |
Seattle trio vies for starting job
|
Updated 8/11/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: With Seahawks leading receiver Bobby Engram expected to miss six to eight weeks with a cracked shoulder, the club will begin auditioning WRs Ben Obomanu, Jordan Kent and Courtney Taylor for Engram's spot for their first three games. | Analysis: Obomanu is a third-year receiver who has drawn rave reviews thus far in camp while Kent and Taylor are second-year receivers aiming to bump their workload. Obomanu is considered the favorite to get Engram's starting spot for now. All three receivers are not worth drafting in standard drafts but could come into play off the waiver wire this season. We'll keep you posted on who's going to get the job. |
Kent scores Seattle's first touchdown
|
Updated 8/8/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seattle WR Jordan Kent scored a touchdown in Friday's preseason opener against the Vikings. He caught one pass for the 18-yard score from Matt Hasselbeck in the opening drive of the game. | Analysis: The fact that Kent scored the first touchdown of the season for the Seahawks bodes well for the youngster during the regular season. He hooked up with starter Hasselbeck and that is something the QB will remember. Kent should still be avoided in Fantasy drafts unless Seattle comes out and says he'll get plenty of touches during the season, but he's definitely someone to keep on the radar. |
Obomanu ahead of pack
|
Updated 8/6/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Seattle WR Ben Obomanu is earning his spot with the Seahawks this year, reports the News Tribune. Obomanu's work ethic and consistency earned him a regular appearance with veterans Bobby Engram and Nate Burleson in the team's frequently used three-receiver sets. With Deion Branch still recovering from anterior cruciate ligament surgery on his left knee, and with questions lingering if he will be ready for the team's regular season opener at Buffalo, the competition at receiver has produced several candidates with Obomanu battling with Courtney Taylor, Logan Payne and Jordan Kent. But Obomanu has stood out so far and is ahead of the other two. Last year, he saw action in 13 games, finishing with 12 receptions and 180 yards with one touchdown. | Analysis: Seattle needs help at receiver, and Obomanu could provide the answer. He is worth taking with a late-round flier in deep leagues. Don't draft Taylor, Payne or Kent at this time, but keep an eye on how they do in case they earn regular playing time during the year. |
Seahawks sign slew of guys
|
Updated 2/11/2008 |
| Jordan Kent, WR SEA | |
| News: Earlier this offseason, the Tacoma News Tribune reported that the Seahawks agreed to reserves/futures contracts with: TE Zac Alcorn, DT Jonathan Lewis, RB Dan Curran, LB Cameron Jensen, WR Jordan Kent, TE Joe Newton, DE Nu'u Tafisi and DT Kelly Talavou. | Analysis: Curran was nicknamed "Gravedigger" for his gritty play in the Arena league, and Alcorn has reportedly been on Seattle's radar for a while. Ultimately, these guys will compete for roster spots throughout the offseason and provide organizational depth. They're not worth following in Fantasy league play. |
