The 2014 Seattle Seahawks: Five (Bold?) predictions

Percy Harvin will play in at least 10 regular season games this season!

Despite his currently being injury free and, from what he has said, feeling about as good as he has at any other time in his career, I don’t think the Seahawks will use him as an every down receiver.

Instead, I think they will move him around a lot (often in the slot), and use him primarily in formations where they can use him as either a decoy or best utilize him as the weapon he is. Accordingly, I think Paul Richardson will be rotating in at both the #2 and #3 receivers spots with Harvin.

Though they both possess blazing speed, they offer different skill sets. Richardson offers a vertical threat, while Harvin is more of a weapon when he already has the rock.
