Yep. You might even say he's Lockett in.

Sorry, I had to.
Lockett is 170lb, I don't consider him a WR1.
Didn't know weight was a scoring category for WRs, you must be in some weird leagues.

He's listed at 182 lbs btw, for reference Tyreek Hill is 185, guess he's not that great either.
They say the camera adds 10 pounds - I guess we know this to be true in regards to Lockett. :biggrin:

Nice start for D.K. in his first NFL game. Looks like a man among boys out there!

Led the team in WR targets 6 which he converted into 4 receptions for 89. No other receiver had more than 2 targets. Interestingly, Carson led the team with 7 targets. Penny, zero targets.

Seattle didn't run it or throw it very effectively but at this rate D.K. may very well lead the team in targets this season.

Lockett only 2 targets..... They are paying Wilson way too much money if that's their formula weekly.

Seattle was lucky to win the game.

On a side note, D.K.'s 89 yards broke Largent's 43 year old rookie receiving record for his first game which was 86 yards.

One record down! Many more to go. :clap:

Yeah I was impressed. I wasn’t the biggest DK fan...only got him in one league (traded for him in a devy league)...and only did that with the intent to flip him.

But I may just have to sit and wait on him and see how he works out.

The target share is especially encouraging. That was unexpected for a rookie who was sidelined in August with a knee scope.

Everyone just assumed that Lockett's low target totals were due to lack of opportunity in a run first offense with Baldwin ahead of him. But maybe Lockett just is what he is and will always be a low-target high-efficiency WR. The kind of guy that runs a lot of field-stretching misdirection routes and then catches the DB sleeping for a couple big plays a game.

DK certainly looked the part of a future WR1 yesterday.

I wish I had shares of DK. He went early in all of my drafts, and I couldn't justify taking him at 1.01 or 1.03 in SF. He looks the part and has an obvious path to lead the team in WR targets. Rus trusts him and that is huge.

I'm just gonna own up.
I may have been wrong about this one.

Not sure he gets targets to be a top flight fantasy asset though.

I would wait a few weeks to say that


This is who is. We all knew there would be good days. Just wait for the 3 weeks disappearing act.

There is no question in my mind that he will be the top targeted WR on the Hawks ... now whether or not that makes him a legit WR given how run-oriented Seattle is is another question.

I had the choice of trading Dak for a 2020 1st and Tyler Lockett or DK.

I chose Lockett and felt really great about it... but I may have made the wrong choice.

I was pretty happy ecstatic when DK fell to me at the 1.11, this was a promising start but let’s not forget he’s a rookie receiver in a run first offense.

The contested catch off Russell's improvision was nice. Route wise, he wasn't used much differently to tell if there will be issues down the line. Only saw go's and slants. Didn't see much in terms of separation unless it was straight line.

You should still feel great about it. Lockett is the best WR on the team.

Yea, I know he's still the WR1 but I always play the long game in Dynasty and I'd written off DK as a situational deep threat all offseason. He showed more versatility than I knew he had in week 1, and I could see a world now where DK ends up being the WR1 in SEA for years to come.

We'll see what happens.

Slants and Go's. That's all he needs.
