Don Hutson 1,807 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) Hollister's game against the 49ers is especially impressive since they have been completely dominant against tight ends this season. No other tight end has more than 4 receptions or 10 fantasy points against the 9ers this season. Tyler Eifert is the only other tight end to score a touchdown against them. Hollister scored 20.2 fantasy points against the 49ers while all other tight ends combined have scored 48.9 fantasy points against them.

Manster 761 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 This Hollister kid is my kind of player! He plays with a chip on his shoulder. No frills, no gimmicks. He initiates contact......and he's a central Oregon boy. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don Hutson 1,807 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) This week's game seems like a trap. The Eagles saw what Hollister has done and they will gameplan to stop him. While the Eagles have given up the 7th most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, they have given up the 7th least fantasy points to opposing tight ends. Maybe they are good at stopping tight ends because they practice against Ertz and Goeddert. The Seahawks might even preempt the Eagles and intentionally not feature Hollister this week on the assumption that he will receive a lot of defensive attention. Tight ends and wide receivers often follow up a great game with a dud and it is not a coincidence. One reason why this might not be true is Russell Wilson. So many of his plays are broken and extended with his legs that the play that was called becomes irrelevant. When Russell is being descended upon by pass rush, a big tight end just 10 yards in front of him is a welcome target. Edited November 20, 2019 by Don Hutson 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But overall, they haven't faced many of the elite tight ends so you're probably right that their success is mainly due to a favorable schedule.

Ministry of Pain 5,386 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Bought him a couple weeks ago after going thru Hunter-WillD-McDonald-Everett-Herndon-and feel good about how the TE is asked to produce in Seattle. It really is not a spot that defenses can key in on and so about 5-6x a game Wilson has a wide open TE that he simply must connect with and take the free yards and first downs, eventually it becomes wide open red zone targets. TE spot has produced all season long, don't jump off the train now. Home stretch, this guy is going to have some great numbers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don Hutson 1,807 Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 This is some serious Kool-Aid that is being quaffed. Hollister has had two good games. One of those games was against the Bucs who are horrible against tight ends. He is in a nice situation being on the Seahawks with Wilson as his quarterback and little competition for targets. So I am happy to have Hollister on my roster but I'm going to temper my expectations until he has proven himself more. I've also rostered David Njoku. If I had to choose one of them for Week 12, I'd choose Hollister. If I had to choose one for ROS, I'd choose Njoku. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If we’re going to discredit one of the good games because it’s against the Bucs then we should also credit him for following it up with another equally as good game against the 49ers. Bucs give up 2nd most FPPG in .5 PPR and 49ers give up 2nd least. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ministry of Pain 5,386 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Anybody thumping their chest about Hollister didn't watch the game. In the 3rd Q he had as many targets as anyone else on the team, it wasn't like he was absent in the game plan. Seahawks had a rough day on offense, Carson had a rough day, Wilson had a rough day... Calling people stupid for playing Hollister today or wanting to run here 1st thing to spike an imaginary football makes you look painfully foolish. I will double down and start him again next week. No Tight End outside of a couple are anything along the lines of steady, Everett from LA Rams has had a pretty good season but every other week you gotta eat a "3" and hope he bounces back with 15-20 the next week. It's the TE 2019 season and it's riddled with injuries that have gutted a lot of good TE options. I can't think of too many better spots to be starting a TE in 2019 than Russel Wilson's offense, it just didn't go today and they still won by 8.

The Frankman 3,301 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Quote Jacob Hollister caught 2-of-4 targets for 22 yards in the Seahawks' Week 12 win over the Eagles. Hollister looked to be hurt at the end of his 21-yard catch-and-run in the first half, but he quickly returned to action and should have had a touchdown. Russell Wilson just badly overthrew the wide-open tight end in the end zone, and Hollister was rarely heard from again as Wilson threw the ball just 25 times in a comfy win. Hollister will be a TE1 next week against the Vikings. Edited November 24, 2019 by The Frankman Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EthnicFury 110 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 His other missed target was an under throw when he had his man beat down the seam.

Now trying to add Doyle by dropping Hollister for this waiver period, but Yahoo won't let me make a claim? We have one-day waivers in our league. Seems like Doyle should have cleared waivers Thursday, and if he's still available when no one picked him up until gametime Sunday, seems I should be allowed to make a claim for him.

kittenmittens 1,263 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) Hollister is good at football. His hands are really good, and his blocking looks a lot better than you would expect for a receiving TE. He handled the DE no problem on that long TD pass to Moore. Wilson is not going to stop throwing to him. He is just picking up where Dissly left off. Edited December 3, 2019 by kittenmittens Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Still just 6 catches for about 45 yds but a solid 10 pt PPR week, the TE is being featured in this offense and since Seattle is now a 1/2 seed in the NFC, seems like targeting the TE is an emphasis here.
