Tyler Lockett behind Jermaine Kearse on Seahawks' depth chart
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is listed behind Jermaine Kearse on the team's official depth chart. The Seattle Times still considers Lockett a de facto starter because of his role in three-receiver sets. This doesn't really change anything. Lockett is already one of the league's most explosive playmakers, but is a boom/bust WR3/4 until we get more clarity on his 2016 role.
What It Means:
This doesn't have many fantasy implications and The Seattle Times still consider Lockett a starter due to the Seahawks' three-receiver sets. One of the league's most explosive playmakers, the 2015 third-round pick is a classic boom-or-bust option entering the season.
Our algorithms project him for 53 receptions for 740 yards and 4.06 touchdowns. Among wideouts to see at least 50 targets, Lockett ranked fifth in Reception Net Expected Points per target last season.
