I don't think so. I really don't understand the hype. Did the Seahawks suddenly develop a top-notch offensive line or receivers? I don't think so. If Wilson is in the top 15 QBs I will be surprised. Locker seems slightly safer bet to me. So, if there is someone good on the waiver wire (or some Seahawk homer to trade with), I would be dumping Wilson.

Forte, Spiller, Bradshaw? Tough pick really after Forte and Spiller. Still not totally bought into Ridley and the NE offensive line I guess.

I have Locker on my bench behind Rodgers...his separated left shoulder bugs me a bit.

Doesn't Russell Wilson have the ability to rack up some points with his legs as well? I see him as possibly having some potential.

Speaking of Rodgers...I had 1st pick overall and selected him.....he wasn't bad last week, but this week he was somewhat disappointing....definitely doesn't seem to be putting up the numbers that he seemed to last year (fantasy wise).

Yeah, not sure if Rodgers was hurt more than was let on, but that is too relatively pedestrian outings for him.

With Wilson I am sticking with the fact that rookie QBs don't usually put up huge numbers unless they are just amazingly physically talented, like Cam or RG3. And really Locker will get some extra yards with his legs as well. I think Wilson's stat lines will generally be very similar to his first game. 150 yards 1int, 1td and 20 yards rushing. Locker has more upside to me (and better receivers with Britt returning). I'm not even betting that Wilson will be the starting QB through the entire year. A couple games struggling and we will see Flynn I think.

Nice dodge there as in one of my cash leagues I was facing the Rodgers owner and he only got 11.6,now I need Matt Ryan to get in a shootout with Manning.
