Harvin explosive in Seahawks opener

by Michael White | Fri, Sep 5th 12:45am EDT

The Seahawks unleashed their new toy Thursday night as Seattle routed the Packers 36-16. Harvin was targeted 7 times for 7 catches and 59 yards and was handed the ball on the jet sweep and out of the backfield, receiving 4 carries for 41 yards.

Fantasy Impact:

Harvin owners should have a big smile on their face after seeing how often the Seahawks got the ball into his hands. After unveiling the Jet sweep in the Super Bowl, it looks like it is here to stay. Interestingly, Harvin also shifted to the backfield out of an empty set more than once and received a carry on the run option. It certainly looks as though Harvin may have a chance to dominate PPR leagues the same way he did as a Viking. Another performance like this and Harvin owners may just have a must start WR on their roster that could end up as one of the best values in the league given were he was drafted.
