]]> In an under the radar acquisition, the Carolina Panthers have signed DJ Hackett to a two year contract. Hackett is a player who had much success last season with the Seattle Seahawks when he was healthy. In Carolina, he’ll be placed next to Steve Smith to help spread the field.

In 2007, Hackett had 32 catches, 384 yards and three touchdowns in only six games. Extended over a season, that extrapolates to 86 catches, 1035 yards and eight touchdowns. If the Panthers get anything close to that level of production, they will be ecstatic.

Hackett fits the mold of players who have done well next to Smith. He’s big, he’s strong and he’s a threat in the red zone. Since Smith gets so much attention, Hackett should find himself open a lot more than he’s used to. If he can take advantage of that, he’s definitely a 2008 fantasy football sleeper.

Right now, DJ Hackett projects out to about 65 catches, 900 yards and six touchdowns. Those numbers would make him a solid fantasy football option.
