Phillip Dorsett

Dorsett goes from Tom Brady to Russell Wilson. Must be nice. While Dorsett doesn't have much appeal as the No. 3 wide receiver in a low-volume offense, he does have some rare handcuff value. If Tyler Lockett were forced to miss any time, Dorsett would be the natural replacement in the slot, a role that he exceled in during his time with the Patriots. In fact, Dorsett has averaged 1.46 more fantasy points PER TARGET while in the slot over the last two years, which is more than any other receiver in the league. Something to think about should Lockett miss time.

Phillip Dorsett signs a one-year deal with the Seahawks

Former Patriots and Colts WR Phillip Dorsett is headed to Seattle on a one-year deal.

Fantasy Impact

Dorsett, a former 2015 first-round pick out of Miami, played two seasons with the Colts before going to New England, where he spent three seasons. He hasn’t quite found his footing with either team, never topping more than 528 yards or five touchdowns in any given year. The 27-year old will look to flip the script as he takes his talents to Seattle to work with Russell Wilson and the Seahawks. He’ll work alongside Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf to start the season, and can really only be viewed as a WR5 or WR6 in very deep leagues.
