TYLER LOCKETT:

Lockett is a wild card. Capable of huge games because of his speed and elite route-running ability, he could also be expected to disappear in some games due to game flow or DB matchups. He can be tantalizing both as a draft target and a weekly lineup option, but if any of you are T.Y Hilton owners I think that’s a fair comparable. Lockett might not be consistent week to week, but his upside is unlimited. For that reason he could be a frustrating play; pitching a shutout one week only to grab 5 balls for 150 yards and two scores when you sit him the next.

I’d make Lockett a mid round target in a 12 team or deeper league. Check your heart and hold off on T-Lock until the 6th round or later.

Next: Jimmy Graham a sleeper?
