He has been one of the best scoring WRs in the last few years, even with Geno. That is, until this year. Smiths go to is Metcalf, but Locket is always the deep TD threat but that has not been the case this year. What is the collective take on what’s going on? Should I bail on him?
Lockett has always been a very consistent WR, but has been quiet about it. Kinda like how Mike Evans is remarkably consistent but isn’t considered elite on the same level as Jefferson and those guys. Lockett’s getting older but the talent is still there, the problem is Hawks’ OL has been incredibly injured all year and Geno has to get the ball out quickly. They’re also running Walker a lot more than people expected.
Lockett has always been one of the most underrated WRs that quietly puts up consistently good numbers. The issues this year with his fantasy stats have more to do with Seattle’s OL problems and the impact it has on their offense.
