2024 Player Outlook

Lockett had another good season in 2023, finishing with 79 receptions for 894 yards and five touchdowns. Yes, 2023 ended his streak of four straight years of at least 1,000+ yards but he was very serviceable as a WR3 in PPR leagues. The question heading into 2024 is whether or not the downward trend continues. The Seahawks drafted Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the first round last year and the rookie had a good year as he made some plays down the second half of the year. The fear is that JSN's rise is going to come at the expense of Lockett and that the number of targets, receptions and in turn yards all go down. Now, you aren't paying a premium for Lockett, his ADP has him as WR52 so in most leagues he is being drafted as a WR4 which leaves room for some upside as he will immediately benefit should JSN or DK Metcalf go down with an injury.
