I'd drop Allison for Lockett. I'm also a Callaway believer but that's not something I would try to convince others of.

I am not that excited about Lockett but maybe that is because I feel like he should have broken out already.

However, I have been feeling that my Allison ownership is too much about his situation and potential role should injuries hit Cobb or Adams and not because of his talent. I think there is a chance he becomes this year's Adam Thielen.

Am I too blind to see better values?

I'd look at Lockett and Dede. They could both be in for big years

We're all blind brother. At this stage everyone is prognosticating and, unless you don't watch any football, your predictions are as good as anyone else's. I've always been enamored by Lockett's route running and fundamentals, but I think his kick and punt returning holds back his receiver value. Hopefully they let someone else return kicks.

But if you think Allison is going to make a Theilen like jump then you should keep him for now. That last thing you want is to regret dropping your guy cause some Yahoo on the internet recommended it.

Trade Mike Williams for a future 1st (good luck) and then nab Westbrook. Doctson I'd move for a second. Both are purely jump ball specialists.

No one is giving up a first for Mike Williams in my league unless he produces, even then, it would probably be a late first. I would rather keep Williams at that price. Doctson will probably only bring in a 3rd rounder in my league. People in my league really avoid trading picks alone for a player.
