Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
there is a very good chance that graham is gone next year. he has no cap hit to be cut and makes 8 mil next year. that team will likely not want to afford that. believe it or not some of us were on tyler lockett before matt harmon ever mentioned him and/or dont form our opinions on players solely based on what random twitter schmuck says. i understand others do like him because harmon mentions him tho but most of those are noob dynasty players that likely sold because he was hurt.Jason3123 wrote:Why are we infatuated with Lockett?

doug baldwin is also 28 yrs old. not old by any means but seahags would be smart to supplement him with a talented wr like lockett who can run all the routes and is a good slot option. is he a wr1? obviously not. but its a 1st in 2018 thats a fine price for a player i fully expect to be a solid wr2

Interesting comp, never thought about it that way. But I agree.Jason3123 wrote: it looks like he'll be a John Brown player at best IMO, which I would hate to rely on.
There were several ppl on here already high on him before the draft. But yeah I imagine Harmon had a big influence on the overall hype of the guy.Jason3123 wrote:Why are we infatuated with Lockett? Because of Matt Harmon?
Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
FWIW I like Lockett as well, and own several shares of him, I'm just curious what the expectations are? Again, to me, he's a boom/bust WR, even as his role increases. A John Brown type, a much lesser version of T.Y. IMO. I wouldn't pay a random 1st for a John Brown/DeSean Jackson. Maybe if I was on the clock and knew the player I was passing on.
I just don't see Lockett as a player you could realistically start week to week. Definite best ball type of player. Maybe if you get big play bonuses, special team stats, etc..but otherwise I think at best he's a WR 3, and I'm not investing a 1st in that type of player. Just my opinion.

Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
you compare him to john brown and djax kinda like its a negative thing. when john brown was healthy and doing good things the past few years he was going for late 1sts often. how is this different? its kinda a moot point honestly cause nobody in their right mind that owns him gonna give him away for less anyway. except those newbie dynasty guys that did in fact buy him only because of matt harmonJason3123 wrote:FWIW I like Lockett as well, and own several shares of him, I'm just curious what the expectations are?

Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
I was high on Lockett before his rookie draft. He was one of my late 1st options. He was taken before my pick but I ended up trading Rawls (who I got off waivers) for Lockett +. I like Wilson but he isn't the type of QB who will improve his WRs fantasy value. Couple that with the Seahawks being a primarily running team. He really isn't in a good situation. Average situation at best.

Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
this is part of the equation i dont get at all. some ppl that dont think hes worth a late 1st minimum just dont make sense to me because he was drafted just last year as a late 1st/early 2nd player. his situation was the same then as it is now. how did he lose value lmao. thats why i consider the ppl that say hes worth less to be out of their mindsbroncohead wrote:I was high on Lockett before his rookie draft.

Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
Yep I agree. I hold on the 1st round WRs for about 3 seasons. If they haven't done much than I move on generally. Lockett is still worth a least a 1st to me considering the bust rate for 2nd round picks it's just not logical to move him for that.knotts4372 wrote:this is part of the equation i dont get at all. some ppl that dont think hes worth a late 1st minimum just dont make sense to me because he was drafted just last year as a late 1st/early 2nd player. his situation was the same then as it is now. how did he lose value lmao. thats why i consider the ppl that say hes worth less to be out of their mindsbroncohead wrote:I was high on Lockett before his rookie draft.

Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
It's interesting to see how quickly an injury and a slow start to a season can so drastically change his long term outlook for some people.
The kid has put barely a years worth of games on tape (a lot of which is pretty damn good for a rookie) and showed flashes of some high end WR2/low WR1 upside, but people would rather take their chances at the 50/50 or worse shot with a late 1st rounder?
It was only a couple of years ago where people were perfectly fine sitting on WRs for 2/3 years with the understanding that they generally take some time to develop.
Now suddenly people are jumping ship if WRs aren't complete studs less than 2 years into their career?

probably due to the 2014 rookie WRs. They messed it ups for everyone hahaCharlieKelly wrote:It's interesting to see how quickly an injury and a slow start to a season can so drastically change his long term outlook for some people.

Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
In my work league redraft I had to hurredly pick him up last weekend at about 3:04 on Sunday. Almost forgot and left him in this week, but ended up taking him out. Doh!
Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
Yeah I am not sure the deals will be as hot right now on Lockett. I think you could have gotten him for a 2nd in some leagues pretty easily.
I doubt it no. The SEA offense looks much better when he is healthy and targetted

Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
That may seem wrong in retrospect but it was the right move. It took until week 15 for him finally to have a great game is a major concern for his future. Seattle clearly doesn't trust him despite all of the supposed confidence they heaped on him during the off season. You can't beat yourself up over benching someone who hasn't had double digits more than a couple of times the entire year and zero TDs.Lotto4Life wrote:Almost forgot and left him in this week, but ended up taking him out.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.
Re: Tyler Lockett - Get him before it's too late
Yeah he is only a starter for me in return leagues. I would be very worried starting him in PPR every week
