Lockett, a SEA veteran, remains a boundary threat and a steady presence in the aerial attack. As a captain, his leadership borders on symbolic for the younger corps, setting a tone for Week 1. His chemistry with Darnold and the offense could help Seattle carve out quality targets early in the game.

Lockett’s departure from the depth chart marks a pivot to a younger, more dynamic WR corps. His absence opens targets for Horton and JSN, while MV-S’s exit leaves space for the rookie to rise. Lockett’s veteran presence is cited as a departure that reshapes Seattle’s pass game and fantasy landscape.

Lockett is cited as a high-profile WR comp in the WR room discussions, shaping expectations for target share and how the Titans might align expectations for a veteran presence around Ridley and Jefferson if the team signs multiple deep threats.

Lockett remains a steady bridge to big weeks when Seattle’s offense hits rhythm, often bolstering a two-receiver set that supports Metcalf and the core passing game. His veteran savvy and continuity with the QB make him a reliable weekly floor-boost in best-ball and standard leagues alike, and a potential late-season spike in the right matchups.

Lockett provides veteran stability and a reliable target floor. Horton’s emergence and Darnold’s distribution could diversify Seattle’s pass game while Lockett remains a dependable anchor.
