Fantasy Profile: Marshawn Lynch, RB, Seattle Seahawks

Marshawn Lynch has been one of the most stable running backs in the NFL over the last few seasons. In 2015, Lynch tallied 1306 yards rushing and 13 Touchdowns, he also had 367 receiving yards and four touchdowns. However, he came up just one touchdown short in the Super Bowl.

In the off-season Seattle acquired one of the best tight ends in the NFL in Jimmy Graham via a trade with the New Orleans Saints. Now that Seattle has a vertical threat, the Seahawks offense could be one of the best in the NFL. Lynch could lose some of his red zone targets to Graham, and see a small dip in his touchdowns though. Even with that threat, Lynch is still an elite runner on a strong team and should have no problem putting up big numbers in 2015.
