Seahawks | Moore released from practice squad Thu Nov 19, 06:33 PM
The Seattle Seahawks have released RB Devin Moore from their practice squad.
| Our view: Moore has good speed and return ability, he should get picked up somewhere during the offseason, if not by the end of the regular season. |

Seahawks | Omon signed to practice squad Thu Nov 19, 06:32 PM
The Seattle Seahawks have signed free-agent RB Xavier Omon (Bills) to their practice squad.
| Our view: Omon could get the call-up and significant work if something happens to Justin Forsett, because he is a lot better suited to run between the tackles than Louis Rankin. |

Seahawks | J. Jones out for Week 11 Wed Nov 18, 02:49 PM
Greg Johns, of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, reports Seattle Seahawks head coach Jim Mora said RB Julius Jones (lung) will not play in Week 11 but may be able to play in Week 12.
| Our view: With Jones out of the lineup we should once again see more of Justin Forsett. The matchup this week is brutal, as the Seahawks are facing the Vikings, but Forsett is a good receiving option out of the backfield and could put up some fantasy points in the passing game. Louis Rankin is also likely to catch a few screen passes as the Seahawks try to slow down the Vikings pass rush. |

Seahawks | Forsett, Rankin to see more carries Tue Nov 17, 03:52 PM
Seattle Seahawks RBs Justin Forsett and Louis Rankin could see more carries over the next few weeks, if not the final seven games, with RB Julius Jones (ribs, lung) injured.
| Our view: Both Forsett and Rankin deserve more playing time after the way they played on Sunday. Forsett is the clearly the lead back here, and is a versatile player that can be used effectively as a receiver out of the backfield. Rankin is great in open space as he is ultra-quick and fast, but he struggles to run between the tackles and is arm tackled way too easily. |

Seahawks | Jones unlikely to play Week 11 Mon Nov 16, 06:04 PM
NFL.com reports Seattle Seahawks head coach Jim Mora said RB Julius Jones (ribs, lung) is feeling better but likely will not be cleared to play in Week 11.
| Our view: Justin Forsett should get the start in his place vs. Minnesota. Even though the Vikings have been tough against the run, Forsett's receiving ability will make him a solid RB2 play in PPR leagues. |

Seahawks | Rankin has solid all-purpose effort in Week 10 Mon Nov 16, 12:23 PM
Dave Boling, of The News Tribune, reports Seattle Seahawks RB Louis Rankin had three carries for 24 yards, in addition to three receptions for 24 yards, in Week 10 in relief of injured RB Julius Jones (rib, lung). Rankin also averaged 20.5 yards on two kickoff returns.
| Our view: Rankin is a dangerous player in the open field where he can use his speed and quickness to his advantage. He does struggle to run between the tackles, but get him in space and watch out! |

Seahawks | J. Jones has bleeding in his lung Sun Nov 15, 10:03 PM
Updating a previous item, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Seattle Seahawks RB Julius Jones (lung) has bleeding in his lung and was kept at an Arizona hospital while the team return to Seattle.
| Our view: This is a more significant injury than what originally sounded like an isolated broken rib. Though Andre Johnson was able to play the week after sustaining a bruised lung, odds are that Jones will miss at least next week's game, giving Justin Forsett a strong chance to build on his breakout effort. |

Seahawks | Houshmandzadeh catches nine passes Week 10 Sun Nov 15, 08:38 PM
The Associated Press reports Seattle Seahawks WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught nine passes for 165 yards Week 10.
| Our view: Houshmandzadeh caught passes all over the field against a soft Arizona secondary. He saw his usual number of underneath targets but showed that he can still get behind defenses on a long sideline route that went for 54 yards. He was also frequently targeted in the red zone, drawing an interference call on one play and narrowly missing a scoring catch on tight coverage on another. |

Seahawks | Forsett runs for 123 yards Week 10 Sun Nov 15, 08:37 PM
The Associated Press reports Seattle Seahawks RB Justin Forsett had 17 carries for a career-high 123 yards with a touchdown Week 10. He also caught five passes for 26 receiving yards.
| Our view: Forsett was very effective after Julius Jones left early with a chest injury and did nothing to disprove the argument from many observers that he is the best all-around back on the Seahawks' roster. Jones' injury is reportedly a rib fracture, which should keep him out at least a week, making Forsett a strong waiver pickup this week. |

Seahawks | Hasselbeck may continue to throw more often Fri Nov 13, 01:44 AM
The Seattle Seahawks rushing attack ranks 30th in the NFL, averaging 84.5 yards per game. The team may choose to use a short passing game to keep the offense moving. QB Matt Hasselbeck threw the ball 51 times during the team's Week 9 game. Head coach Jim Mora said, "I think, really, in the long term, you have to be able to run the football. But I want us to have some success. If success means giving the ball to Matt, and saying, 'Hey, here you go. Go make plays,' then that's what we'll do."

Seahawks | J. Wilson currently starting at CB Fri Nov 13, 01:38 AM
Eric D. Williams, of the Tacoma News Tribune, reports Seattle Seahawks CB Josh Wilson is the starting cornerback opposite CB Marcus Trufant for now, with CB Ken Lucas being the nickel cornerback. Head coach Jim Mora would not confirm if that would be the plan for Week 10. Lucas had an issue with his neck and his ulnar nerve Week 9, which caused Mora to use CB Kelly Jennings in nickel situations.
| Our view: Wilson is a decent IDP league waiver wire pickup in CB required leagues because of his speed and playmaking ability while he's a starter. |

Seahawks | Mora sees improvement in J. Jones Fri Nov 13, 01:34 AM
Eric D. Williams, of the Tacoma News Tribune, reports Seattle Seahawks head coach Jim Mora is seeing progress in RB Julius Jones. Mora said, "I think there's been some real improvement in Julius that's not necessarily evident to the naked eye when you're watching the game for any of us --- coaches on the side, fans in the stands or you guys in the press box. But when you go back and look at the film you notice some things that he's doing a lot better, and he's starting to pick up the scheme. He's seeing things much better. I think he's understanding where the cuts are going to be much better. I feel like he's gaining more yards after contact than he was earlier in the year. So those are some of the things that I think he's doing well. And then his pass protection has improved."
| Our view: It looks like Jones is going to hold his job through the season. He could have RB2 value against a somewhat soft second half schedule. |

The Associated Press reports Seattle Seahawks QB Matt Hasselbeck was 39-for-51 for 329 yards with a touchdown pass and an interception Week 9 against the Detroit Lions. Hasselbeck's 39 completions set a franchise record.
| Our view: The Seahawks chose to use the short passing game to establish makeable down-and-distances instead of the running game for long stretches of the game, including late when they were salting the game away, so Hasselbeck's numbers were strong. |
