I would love to see us go after Tyler Lockett this offseason.
 

After listening to his interview with Sherman, i'm pretty impressed with him.

I think he would be an improvement over JU JU

the way he thinks and the way he talks is very impressive and I think he'd fit in here awesome.

I always knew he was good,

Just give that interview a listen I think you'll be impressed. I know a lot of you know about him more than I do, but he never really crossed my radar too much till I listened to this interview.

I'm a pretty big Lockett fan. It is pretty impressive the career he put together after KState.

However, it would depend on the money. I don't want to plow a shitload of money in a +30 dude.

Nah I am done with trading with the Seahags. We always get shit on!

Bad idea

i don't think our current philosophy is to go after older players on the backside of their careers - that was more like 90s era Chiefs.

Pretty much this. If the Seahawks put a reasonable trade price on Lockett it's because they are swindling us. Do not trust!

Too old

Way to old and expensive.

Huge fan, but we’d have to trade and Veach generally doesn’t do that for guys 28+.

Kids a baller, but the price will probably be steep.

Nah

I love me some T-Lock, but pass due to price and age.

Agreed.

Honestly, their WR depth chart right now:

MVS
Toney
Moore
Ross (I know)

They can bring back Justin Watson, who for all our consternation with him sometimes, is an outstanding WR4/WR5. He's not going to cost much and he's absolutely willing to come back after having his young career almost vanish in Tampa.

JuJu's the biggest question. If you do, your WR is pretty close to being where it needs to be so long as you have that TE and RB room as good as it is. Maybe a draft pick finishes you off, maybe.

Without JuJu, they're going to need a guy, but Lockett doesn't seem to be that guy, he's a Toney, not a JuJu. I think Rashee Rice is a higher-upside JuJu, and now you have a hard decision for your first round pick, honestly.

Long story short: I don't think Lockett is what we need.

Not that this has any bearing on it occurring/not occurring, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind being closer to family since his little brother will be in purple down the road for the next 3-4 years.

Also - wouldn't mind swapping out MVS for Lockett, so I'm not sure if we could partially offset the move by moving MVS in the deal or elsewhere.

Again - probably doesn't happen.
