T.J. Housh

Seattle Seahawks

Jailbreak

This is a stoic fella’ with great hands, a sweet name, a wicked pony-tail, and most importantly, he’s the only half Persian in the league. Did we leave anything out? He’s a dependable receiver and was the unsung hero in the most dysfunctional locker-room in the NFL.  And as soon as free-agency came a knocking, TJ’s boots we’re a rockin’.  Housh was like Jerry Garcia after the Lonesome Prison Blues show in Oregon State Prison (May 5th,1982 – it’s a must have) the show is over… pay up, I’m out of here.







Finally freed from his prison term, he signed with the Seattle Seahawks for a deal (5 years @ $40 million) that should see him retire a Seahawk, or at least play out his productive years as one.  Good call Housh, get your last payday back where it all begins...the Pacific Northwest.







Warren Haynes does some damn fine axe work starting right around the 1:30 mark.

Who's Your Mama

He had a slow start to his career catching balls from the lowly Jon Kitna.   In the 2003 pre-season he severely injured his hamstring forcing him to miss all 16 games, but was able to return the following year just in time for Palmer’s better than expected rookie campaign.  When you line up Housh’s stats with Carson Palmer’s, it’s easy to note that as long as Palmer has been high-round fantasy-worthy, so has Housh.    Housh has increased his # of receptions and yards every year up until 2008.  A year in which Palmer missed 12 games and “almost Mr. Irrelevant” Ryan Fitzpatrick and his 32nd ranked 5.8 yards per attempt was under center.  You do the math. 

By our estimation, Housh is the second best possession receiver in the game today, trailing only Anquan Boldin. The guy sports one of the best attitudes in the game.   While the circus in Cincinnati (especially in the WR corps) continually churned out bizarre behavior over the years, Housh just showed up for work and produced. His approach has him sitting fat on a nice contract while his cohort Ochocinco can’t even command a third round pick on the open market in trade.  He severely outplayed the extension he signed in 2005 and never made so much as a peep.  The Seahawks made a good move locking this guy up.

2009 Fantasy Outlook

Seattle’s pass offense was pathetic in ‘08.  Hasselbeck missed 9 games and Seneca Wallace came in and actually played admirably (though not from a fantasy perspective) with little help from their pathetic receiving corps.  2nd year Tight End John Carlson led all receivers last season.  Seattle did, though, stick to the ground for much of the remainder of the season with their new 3-headed dung sandwich of Julius Jones, Maurice Morris (now on the Lions), and the other TJ... Duckett. 

The point is, don’t harp on Seattle’s terrible ‘08 fantasy production because it is going to get better.  Enter new head coach Jim Mora Jr. and new offensive coordinator Gregg Knapp and their version of the west coast offense.  Where Knapp goes, running backs succeed.  If Hasselbeck has a ground game that can keep defenses busy, he has proven over the years that he can make his #1 WR very fantasy relevant.  As for the rest of the ‘hawks’ WR corps,  Nate Burleson is a deep threat decoy and Deion Branch, while the least talented Super Bowl MVP ever crowned, is one of the stronger slot guys in the league. These two overpaid injuries-waiting-to-happen should be able to keep some attention diverted away so that Housh can concentrate on wreaking havoc over the middle where he has always earned his paycheck.  He should have no problem developing rapport with a veteran signal-caller.  However, if Hasselbeck goes down, so basically does Housh.  We are going to hedge a little with him and look for him to be available as the 32nd WR off the board in this year’s fantasy draft.

Contract

Housh inked the deal of his career thus far signing a five-year, $40 million deal that included $15 million guaranteed and a $2 million signing bonus.  While there is always the risk of the "Fat Cat" syndrome setting in, we just don't feel that is the type of guy Housh is as he is simply a do'er and a consummate pro.  The contract doesn't enter into our factoring come draft day.


2009 - $5.5 million


2010 - $7 million


2011 - $8 million


2012 - $8.5 million


2013 - $9 million


2014 - Free Agent

Handcuff

Deion Branch and Nate Burleson are average and among the most overpaid guys in the NFL.  We really don’t see them as handcuffs, but we suppose it’s not a bad call snagging Branch if you own Housh, though no earlier than you would normally draft the guy, which is really f’n late.  Burleson is just a choad and we are vexed that he has not already been cut.  The ‘hawks really ate crap on that signing.

Injury Report

Green

Though Housh has had various minor injuries throughout his career, they never seem to be more than just that; minor. He’s missed five games in the last five years, so count on TJ Housh-yo-mama (as Mr. Ochocinco calls him) all year long.

Breaking News

Housh pulls a Keyshawn Johnson expand +

Like fellow wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson wrote in his autobiography "Just Give Me the Damn Ball!", Seahawks WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh wants his coaches to know he's looking for more. "I just got to get these coaches to realize, throw me the ball," Houshmandzadeh said Friday. "Maybe I've said it too much. I just got to show them now."

Pyro's Take:

Housh is a bit of a diva. He takes off practices more than most, and loves to talk about his style and how good he can make even the ugliest of outfits look (i.e. - Seattle's lime green uniforms). His 27 catches this season are the least he's had in through the first five games since 2005.

Houshmandzadeh back at practice in full Thursday expand +

After not practicing at all on Wednesday, Seahawks wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh (back spasms) was back working in full with the team on Thursday.

Pyro's Take:

Housh would normally be a good play against a suspect Bears pass D, but if Hasselbeck can't go, we wouldn't suggest T.J. as any more than a WR3 and would probably go with whatever other option you might have.

Housh practices and is expected to play expand +

Seahawks wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh (back spasms) was back at practice on Friday and is expected to play.

Pyro's Take:

Housh is a bit of a diva, as he took at least one day of practice off a week back in Cinci as well. He'll be 32 in less than a week, so we'll give him that, but for no more than just a day every few weeks. Whatever, you're playing him anyway.

Housh misses second straight day of practice expand +

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh missed his second practice this week dealing with back spasms.

Pyro's Take:

This is not completely out of the ordinary for Housh, but still a little strange being this early in the season. Check back tomorrow to see what his status is going into the weekend.

Houshmandzadeh misses Wednesday practice expand +

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh missed practice on Wednesday due to back spasms.

Pyro's Take:

It's probably nothing as the aging veteran usually gets a day off of practice here and there. We assume Housh will be safe to play this fantasy week, but we'll keep you updated if anything else comes out.

Housh and Hasselbeck on same page in Saturday's preseason victory over the Chiefs expand +

Housh caught five balls for 60 yards including an eight yard TD.

Pyro's Take:

Housh can produce WR1-WR2 numbers as long as Hasselbeck stays healthy, however, should he go down, Seneca Wallace proved to us that he can really only complete passes to TEs - or did that have mostly to do with the fact that Deion Branch, Burleson, and Engram all suck?

Housh with a little Braylon Edwards in him? expand +

Seattle Seahawks WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh thinks he can make anything look good... even the new alternative lime-green jerseys the team may be donning at some point this year. “If you’ve got style, you can rock anything,” Houshmandzadeh said. “And I think I’ve got style, so I’m going to be just fine... You can rock the green, you just have to accessorize with it, right? And you’ll be all right.”

Pyro's Take:

A comment like this doesn't necessarily put Housh in the same category as resident NFL style-bitch Braylon Edwards, but we might have to save a spot for him on The NFL Network's new fall show - NFL's Next Top Model.
