Bobby Wagner Fantasy

Former Seattle Seahawks Pro Bowl linebacker Bobby Wagner signed a five-year, $50 million deal worth up to $65 million with the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday, according to league sources. Wagner will stay in the NFC West and join the defending Super Bowl champions after 10 seasons in Seattle. The 31-year-old tackling machine has made the Pro Bowl each of the last eight years and has also been named to six first-team All-Pro squads. Despite being on the wrong side of 30, Wagner remains productive as ever after posting a career-high 170 tackles (93 solo), three tackles for loss, three QB hits, one sack, one interception and five passes defensed in 16 starts in his final year in Seattle. Not only will he remain a high-end IDP linebacker, but his addition will make the Rams defense a popular fantasy commodity in 2022.

The Baltimore Ravens and free-agent linebacker Bobby Wagner are "still talking," according to a league source. The Dallas Cowboys are also out on Wagner, so the eight-time Pro Bowler and six-time first-team All-Pro could be on his way to landing in Baltimore. The Los Angeles Rams are the other team known to be in on Wagner this offseason after the Seattle Seahawks parted ways with the 31-year-old after 10 years together. Wagner is looking for a one-year, $11 million deal, and he should remain a fantasy beast in IDP leagues after posting 104-plus combined tackles in each one of his NFL seasons after being drafted in the second round in 2012 out of Utah State.

All-Pro free-agent linebacker Bobby Wagner visited with the Baltimore Ravens on Friday, according to a source. Ravens have plenty of interest in Wagner, who also visited with the Los Angeles Rams this week. The 31-year-old tackling machine was cut by the Seattle Seahawks this offseason after 10 extremely productive seasons with the team in which he earned eight Pro Bowl selections and was named to six first-team All-Pro squads. In Baltimore, Wagner would be replacing Josh Bynes as an interior linebacker and would be a natural fit likely to retain a starting role. As long as he is playing regularly, Wagner should once again be a fantasy stalwart in IDP leagues after posting 100-plus tackles in every single NFL season he's played.
