The Seahawks have officially named QB Russell Wilson their Week 1 starter. The rookie has thoroughly outplayed QB Matt Flynn through 3 preseason games, completing 67% of his passes with 5 TDs and 1 INT. Wilson has put his plus athleticism on display too, picking up 150 yards and a score on 10 carries. It’s that rushing ability that makes Wilson an intriguing fantasy prospect. Of course, he’s also shown that he can get the job done through the air. We’re targeting Wilson as a high-upside fantasy backup at the tail end of drafts.
