He had only 2 receptions last week but NINE targets(tied for team lead with Burleson)!! With all these Seahawk WRs on IR or hurt, is he gonna be worth the add(also Carlson)? Also, this HAS to make Arz the team to beat in the West now right??

 
HC Holmgren Says WR Taylor Could Lose Job

Frank Hughes, Tacoma News-Tribune - [Full Article]

Yesterday, Seattle Seahawks HC Mike Holmgren said starting WR Courtney Taylor's job may be in jeopardy after he dropped two passes against the Bills. There is the chance that backup quarterback Seneca Wallace could start at either flanker or split end.

So who are there other WRs than?? Hes gotta be the man??
 
I would think that if you are hearing rumors about your backup QB getting reps at your position that's not a good sign for you.

9 targets, caught 2, yes/no?
Targets don't have to mean 7 hit him in the chest and he only caught two?? It means he was targeted 9 times in the game!!?? He dropped a couple, but not 7?? There playing SF and no Burleson/Branch/or Engram??? Only other guy I know of (besides Senica) is that Payne kid or something?? Taylor will have at least 7 rec for 65yds and maybe a score in my opinion??On the other part, if Branch and Engram don't come back at 100%, look for the Sorry Rams and Cardinals to battle it out for the division?? The winner of the Div will be like 6-10?? LOL
 
Taylor is terrible.. Payne is a little better, but not much IMO... This situation goes way behind finding the diamond in the rough (engram, Burleson)... your not scrapping the bottom of an empty value barrel... my best fantasy advice until engram and branch come back... "move along folks, there's nothing to see here"

 
How little talent do you have to have to lose your starting position as a WR in Seattle right now? And, from what I've gathered over the years, Holmgren doesn't usually blow smoke...

Today from the Seattle Times blog:

Logan Payne will probably start on Sunday, coach Mike Holmgren said. Courtney Taylor? Holmgren's not sure. He wants to see how Taylor practices this week because the coach was not pleased with how Taylor played in the season-opener.

 
For those not following the other 5 threads on this, the Seahawks signed Samie Parker and Billy McMullen, and Seneca Wallace is practicing with the WRs, meaning Frye will be the backup QB. Branch and Engram are out until after the bye, according to Holmgren. Kent is back on the practice squad.

So the receivers are:

Wallace

McMullen (who spent the preseason in Washington in the same system under Jim Zorn)

Payne

Taylor

Parker

Taylor was horrible. It wasn't just the drops...he looked unready to be on the field. Payne caught 2 of his 3 targets, but fumbled once.

Wallace has 2 catches in his career, but at least he knows every route and has decent speed and hands.

Kent is better but was cut and signed to the practice squad.
 
Seattle homers, please keep us posted on who the starting flanker will be for the Seahawks. If Taylor keeps the flanker spot, I think he'll continue to have the opportunity to be decent in ppr leagues. If he loses that spot he's obviously worthless. That said, if Wallace starts at flanker, he might be the shark move there.

In most leagues Wallace is listed as a QB and would have to be in the lineup as the QB. That wouldn't work too well.

In 2 QB PPR leagues it would.
 
What are the reports on Taylor this week? IF he can catch half of his targets, he might be a good play.

 
I just had to pick up Wallace in one league and start him at QB. My QB's are Schaub and VY, with Kevin kolb being my 3rd QB. The only Qb on the WW was Wallace. Figuring he'll play a lot of Wr in the game, I'm hoping he scores enough points to give me a decent point total at QB. Anything is better than 0. :(
