Secondary: Brandon Marshall – 22% Ownership

No, I promise this isn’t 2014 and yes, I’m serious. The Seahawks are dying for some offensive playmakers and Marshall has looked decent in the passing game as a big bodied weapon for Wilson to throw to on a consistent basis. He’s improved his route running from the last time we saw him and seems to be comfortable in the role carved out for him, which didn’t happen in his last few years in Chicago.

He will likely be touchdown dependent and gets a bump in standard leagues but can be used in desperate situations if you need a flex option. Marshall will probably fall back into irrelevant territory when Doug Baldwin returns, but Baldwin’s injury history is ugly enough to keep Marshall around on waiver wires for most of the season. Only add him in desperate situations and don’t spend anything serious to get him.
