Quick takeaways
- Jackson Smith and Jigba's fantasy value may be limited due to their lower involvement in the Seahawks offense and the presence of high-end receivers like DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.
- Puka Nakua remains an important part of the Seahawks offense despite a lower target share, and fantasy managers should have confidence in his contributions as a solid wide receiver option.
Deep dives
Jackson Smith and Jigba's current situation
Jackson Smith and Jigba's performance in the Seahawks offense has been underwhelming so far. He is playing behind DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, two high-end receivers, which limits his opportunities. The Seahawks offense has also been utilizing a lot of 12 personnel and tight end sets, which further reduces Smith and Jigba's involvement. The injuries to the offensive tackles have forced the team to focus on strategies that do not heavily involve Smith and Jigba. While his current fantasy value may be limited, his long-term potential and skill set still make him an appealing prospect in dynasty leagues.
