Tyler Lockett

Fantasy Upside

Lockett has become one of the best route-runners in the NFL and can make catches from just about any spot on the field. It's no surprise Russell Wilson trusts him enough to target him 110 times during last season (hauling in 82 receptions). He had ten games of at least five targets, including a whopping 18 in Week 9 against the Buccaneers. And all of this was done as rookie DK Metcalf began bursting onto the scene. No reason to believe Lockett is going to slow down anytime soon.

Fantasy Downside

Lockett dealt with a leg injury in 2019 that he had to be hospitalized for. But even with that, Lockett did not miss any games in 2019 as the injury happened to fall on Seattle's bye week. Other than that, the only other piece that could eat into Lockett's targets is the arrival of Greg Olsen, whom Russell Wilson could develop a nice rapport with.

2020 Bottom Line

Lockett has become a consistent threat in Seattle and makes for a fine option, even as a possible first receiver taken if you decide to load up on running backs or quarterbacks or even a tight end in the first three rounds of your draft. Lockett isn't going anywhere. Even with Olsen now in the mix and a full year of Metcalf, Lockett is still a trustworthy receiver, especially with him being drafted almost outside the top 20 receivers.
