Santonio Holmes

New York Jets

2009 Review

By all accounts, Santonio Holmes turned in a very good 2009 season with 79 catches for 1,248 yards and 5 TDs.  Both those reception and yardage totals easily surpassed his previous highs of 55 and 942 respectively, but his TD total is for crap and ended up keeping him out of the top-10 fantasy receivers on the year.  He hasn’t been much of a touchdown-maker since he joined the Pro ranks, but for the #1 receiver on a team to get out-TDed by a 34-year old (Hines Ward), a tight end (Heath Miller), and a rookie (Mike Wallace), there has to be an explanation.  Was it the multitude of off-the-field problems that continually plague the star WR?  Maybe.  There are a number of different explanations that could be thrown out there, but whatever the case, despite the lack of 6-pointers, Holmes did well enough to satisfy his fantasy owners throughout the year.


~  Ranked 15th in the league with 155.4 WR fantasy points (basic scoring system)


~  Tied for 39th in the league with 5 receiving touchdowns


~  Ranked seventh in the league with 1,248 receiving yards


~  Ranked seventh in the league with 78.0 receiving yards per game


~  Ranked 16th in the league with 79 receptions


~  Tied for eighth in the league with 138 targets


~  Tied for second in the league with 21 receptions of 20+ yards


~  Ranked fifth in the league with 63 catches for first downs


~  Tied for tenth in the league with 491 yards after the catch (YAC)


~  Set career highs in receptions (79.0), yards (1,248), receptions/game (4.9), and yards/game (78.0)

2010 Fantasy Outlook

WOW what an offseason Holmes just went through!  In March, he was accused of attacking a woman in a nightclub, and then once the story came out, was also said to have tried to pay her off so she wouldn’t press charges (where was Big Ben when he needed him?!).  Then a week and a half later, it comes out that Holmes could be facing a four-game suspension for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy (in other words, toking up).  Then a couple days later, he’s quickly traded to the NY Jets for a half-eaten bag of donuts.  Then a couple days later, the suspension became official and just three weeks after that, Santonio nearly had to be escorted off a plane in Pittsburgh for not complying with flight regulations.  Basically, the question is, what sort of toll does all this take on Santonio’s fantasy value in 2010?  The suspension no doubt affects it, but not nearly as much as being traded to the heaviest run-first offense in the league.  Even when he does come back and finds some sort of rapport with QB Mark Sanchez, there are still too many mouths to feed with WRs Cotchery and Edwards and TE Dustin Keller to target as well.  Our take?  Do your best to stay away from Holmes this year.  There’s more of a chance he blows up off the field than on it, which spells B-U-S-T in the world of fantasy.


~ Starting the season on a four-game suspension and not being able to find a rhythm with your new QB doesn’t bode well for a repeat of his 2009 season


~ Cotchery, Edwards, and Keller makes for a “too many roosters in the hen house” situation


~ There is no chance the Jets move away from their bread-and-butter running game just because Holmes is on board


~ How will his new teammates take to him, especially considering his immediate suspension?

He evened things out a bit in 2009, but it's clear Santonio still loves to play on the road.  Be mindful of this if you're stuck between starting Holmes or someone else:

How he gets up after this, we'll never know...

Contract

Santonio signed a five-year, $8.11 million contract in '06 that included $5.42 million guaranteed.  This is the final year of that contract, which works in favor of Holmes working towards a good season… after his suspension of course.  However, he’ll need to prove himself off the field almost as much as on it if he wants that next big deal.  Should be interesting:


2010 - $630,000


2011 - Free Agent

Handcuff

When Santonio returns from his suspension, Braylon Edwards should be his handcuff seeing that Jerricho Cotchery has some fantasy value on his own

Injury Report

Green

Besides his suspension to start off the year, there's no real concern about him missing games

Breaking News

Holmes to get contract extension in offseason? expand +

Beat writer Ed Bouchette for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette believes that Steelers wide receiver Santonio Holmes will be getting a contract extension this offseason.

Pyro's Take:

Holmes was seventh in the NFL in receiving yards this year with 1,248 and put up career highs in receptions (79), first downs (63) and yards. He played all 16 games and is set to make just $755,000 in the last year of his rookie contract in 2010. We expect a deal to be reached before training camp as well.

Holmes blames drops on wrist injury expand +

Steelers wide receiver Santonio Holmes claims that his early-season troubles with holding onto the ball are due to a wrist injury he suffered in Week 2 against the Bears. "That had an impact on me dropping those balls in Chicago," Holmes said about the wrist injury. "But, after that, no. I can't make any excuses. I play wide receiver. I'm supposed to catch the ball."

Pyro's Take:

After watching that catch you made for the winning TD in the Super Bowl last year, we'll give you the benefit of the doubt, especially if you promise you'll step it up the rest of the year for us fantasy football owners who drafted you.

Holmes second in the NFL with 25 targets expand +

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Steve Smith leads the NFL in targets this year with 28 thus far. Santonio Holmes (25), Randy Moss (24), and Andre Johnson (23) round out the top four.

Pyro's Take:

This shouldn't be a surprise, as Stevie has finished in the top 15 each year since 2005 despite not playing a full season in three of those four years. The shocker is that he's only caught 11 of those 28 balls with no TDs to his credit.

Santonio Holmes seen icing his wrist on Monday expand +

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Santonio Holmes was seen around the Steelers' facility on Monday with a large wrap on his left wrist and hand.

Pyro's Take:

Holmes was injured against the Bears on Sunday when he hit the ground and tried to support himself with his left hand. It shouldn't be a big deal, as it's probably just a little sore, but we'll keep you updated in case there's anything more to the injury.

Santonio Holmes going off in Week 1 expand +

Steelers wide receiver Santonio Holmes is starting off the year right. At halftime of the first game of the 2009 season, Santonio already has five catches for 83 yards including a 34-yard touchdown.

Pyro's Take:

We had Holmes ranked as a bottom tier WR2 to start off the season, and it looks as if he'll be right along those lines as the year progresses. Santonio could be in for a nice year as he seems to be in sync with his big quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger.

Parker, Holmes sit out preseason finale expand +

Pittsburgh Steelers RB Willie Parker and WR Santonio Holmes both sat out the team's final preseason game on Thursday.

Pyro's Take:

Both FWP (Fast Willie Parker) and Santonio have been dealing with minor injuries lately, so coach Tomlin sitting them for this meaningless game is no surprise at all.

Willie Parker, Santonio Holmes both questionable for Saturday night's game expand +

Pittsburgh Steelers starters RB Willie Parker (hamstring) and WR Santonio Holmes (back) were both listed as questionable for Saturday night's game against Buffalo.

Pyro's Take:

FWP has been sitting out practice all week, and though the injury is not considered serious, the Steelers will probably be cautious with the smallish Parker. Holmes should be fine and again, coach Mike Tomlin is likely just playing it cautious with Holmes.

Holmes to be used out of the slot more this year expand +

In an effort to get the ball in his hands more this year, Pittsburgh Steelers WR Santonio Holmes will be used out of the slot more in order to avoid defenses double-teaming him. Holmes only caught 55 balls last year compared to 81 from Hines Ward, but that should change in 2009 with Holmes moving inside. "Tone is a guy we're trying to develop more and more at outside receiver and now this year giving him a lot of inside work (because) it's a lot harder to double him," said offensive coordinator Bruce Arians.

Pyro's Take:

This certainly bodes well for Holmes' chances of becoming an efficient fantasy starter this year. Last year, Holmes had three or fewer receptions in eight regular season games, which doesn't quite cut it as a dependable fantasy starter. Hopefully working out of the slot will get his reception totals up into the 70's at least, making it a lot easier for fantasy owners to feel comfortable playing him week in and week out.
