Advanced metrics website Football Outsiders stated that Russell Wilson was pressured on 36.6% of his passes in 2013, trailing only Case Keenum (37.7%) (Football Outsiders)
Fantasy Impact:
For a point of context, Peyton Manning was only pressured on 14.4% of his passes. The Seahawks could view pressured passers as a market inefficiency, as they acquired the 3rd most pressured QB, Terelle Pryor, in the off-season. Fantasy owners and the Seahawks hope that a year of improvement and health for Russell Okung, James Carpenter, Max Unger, and JR Sweezy will provide cleaner pockets for Wilson in 2014. The club is also banking on either rookie Justin Britt or newly acquired veteran Eric Winston to seize the Right Tackle spot.
