2012 Outlook: Gamble (high risk)

Last updated on Aug-27-2012 by Shawn Larabee

Flynn was able to translate a body of NFL work that included only two regular season starts into a three-year deal with Seattle worth $19.5 million. He did set a Packers franchise record for passing yards in one of those games, so he's not going to fly under the fantasy radar.

UPDATE (8/26): Russell Wilson's outstanding pre-season performance has elevated the rookie to opening day starter. Don't expect Flynn to roll over just yet. A QB battle between the two could last through the season.

12.04 KFFL.com - I'm not a believer in Flynn as a breakout quarterback. I am not even sure if I believe he will win the job, but he presents the best backup for me since I waited too long. I never though Josh Freeman would go as someone's third quarterback, although it was my mistake for waiting. I like Joe Flacco better, and even, to a degree, Ryan Fitzpatrick, but Matt Schaub's Week 8 bye limits my choices.
