Better know a Prospect - Tyler Lockett

[gettlemanjack]

I think his value will have risen considerably by the time the draft gets here. This early last year, OBJ was projected as a 2nd-3rd round pick.

We might have to take him in the 2nd if we want him.

i justed checked two draft sites and both have Lockett projected 2nd-3rd R

National Football Post ends a scouting report on him with "I doubt he gets out of the second round...Ten years ago, he may have been a lock to be a first-round type"

Football Outsiders compares him to Antonio Brown (5-10/186 at combine, drafted 6th R out of Central Michigan), who was 1st Team All-Pro this year, Big Ben's #1, was called the Jerry Rice of our time by PFF, and finished #1 in the NFL with 1,698 yds this season

CBS' Dane Brugler compares him to T.Y. Hilton (5-10/183 at combine, drafted 3rd R out of Florida International), who was a Pro Bowler this year, Luck's #1, caught for 1,345 yds this season, etc

Are you dense?

I remember fans like you claiming Da'Rick Rogers and Colt Lyerla would go in the first round.

Lol

Everyone is focusing on his return skills and rightfully so but don't underrate him as a receiver.  Of all of the receivers I've looked at thus far, Lockett's route-running skills are among the best.  His double move is killer, sharp in and out of his breaks.  One of those guys who looks a lot quicker than fast although I'm sure he's plenty fast.

 

Concerned about his weight but I like him a lot.

No doubt, Kansas St WR Tyler Lockett would be a good addition to our roster,another weapon with speed. He sounds a little frail at 5'11" 175 lb.,i wonder if that slight frame might cause him to be injury prone?

I say we sign Cotch to a 3 year deal, sign Bersin to a 2 year deal, sign KB and Brown to a 4 year deal. GET another undrafted rookie WR, and just kill.it next year.

I never once said that lol.

Look at my post history and see that I said that I would take a flyer on Lyerla in the 6th or 7th. Pick 64 is the latest I see him going.

175 lbs?

Is he as ferocious as Steve Smith Senior?

Would also be happy with Justin Hardy out of ECU.

Hope he does not Joe Adams it in the pros.

Whats with accomlished PR/KR guys that forget how to do it in the pros?

Joe had issues with fumbles in college too. This guy doesn't.

I say we look at Conner Vernon from DUKE. DUKE has a great football progam.

[Byrdman4real]

I still like Rashad Green from FSU, but Lockett would be ok too.

Sounds like he won't be there for us in the second even, lol.
