2020 Outlook
Depth Chart
If it wasn't for the monster season that Lamar Jackson delivered, there would've been a real case to be made for Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson to win his first NFL MVP award in 2019. Wilson exceeded 4,000 passing yards for the third time in his professional career while adding 31 touchdowns with only five interceptions. It was Wilson's third straight season of over 30 passing touchdowns as the Seahawks bounced back to throwing the ball over 500 times again after Wilson threw just 427 passes in 2018.

Still an "establish the run" offense under Brian Schottenheimer despite having one of the great quarterbacks of this era, the Seahawks' re-commitment to the passing game only brought them back up to 22nd in the NFL in passing plays per game. Incredible career efficiency has allowed Wilson to remain a fantasy stud despite significantly lower passing volume than most other elite fantasy QBs and that should tell us that we're likely seeing closer to the fantasy floor for Wilson rather than his ceiling.

Despite it long being an issue for the team, the Seahawks once again made no significant investments in the offensive line this offseason. In fact, the offensive line might be even worse, as they let guard D.J. Fluker and center Justin Britt walk. They did draft LSU guard Damien Lewis in the third round, but there's no guarantee that he'll even see the field in 2020. Seattle did add a field stretcher in Phillip Dorsett and a reliable veteran tight end in Greg Olsen, but they really made no hugely significant improvements to the offensive situation as a whole.

A continued deterioration of the defense and the loss of two road-grading offensive linemen could lead to Seattle actually finding themselves needing to pass the ball more often in 2020 than ever before under Wilson. That could mean a bit of a dip in efficiency if defenses know the pass is coming, but an increase in volume would almost certainly lead to a positive effect on Wilson's fantasy production.

Wilson is still considered one of the more elusive quarterbacks in the league and while he does still flash rushing ability from time to time, the days of him running for an average of more than 30 yards per game are probably in the rear view mirror. Nevertheless, he's a player who can comfortably contribute around 20 rushing yards per game, which remains an added value over most of the veteran quarterbacks.

He's one of only a few fantasy quarterbacks who have realistic QB1 overall upside and while he may not be likely to reach quite that level given the offense he's in, Wilson does offer an excellent floor along with a reasonable expectation to finish in the top five at the position.
