If he gets back to that level, it’s not a bad deal. If we keep this up we'll have this page locked in no time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footbull3196 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Absolutely horrible extension. The Seahawks still haven't extended Earl Thomas (who is arguably the best safety in the league), and they let Paul Richardson (a more proven receiver with more upside) walk in free agency for $8 million a season. So let's pay Tyler Lockett $11 million a season? I'm baffled by this move because it doesn't match the direction that you would assume the team is going in judging by their recent actions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm baffled by this move because it doesn't match the direction that you would assume the team is going in judging by their recent actions (not saying I agree with it, because I don't) they're paying him for the player he could be based on pre-injury play, not the player he is. How often that actually works out? I have no clue. They're also assuming that his value at WR + KR/PR outweighs Richardson's value at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's a fair point to make about Lockett's value as a KR, I forgot he was a 1st Team All-Pro a few years ago as a kick returner. Still, hard to justify paying Lockett $11 million a season when they weren't willing to shell out $8 million a year for Paul Richardson. IMO the WR that Richardson could be still exceeds what Lockett could be, but it's clear they're paying him more for his special team abilities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DingoLadd Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 This is a bad deal all around, Injury prone, he couldn't get past the scrubs the seahawks have had for the last few years at WR and the seahawks are paying on "POTENTIAL". The seahawks continue to decline.... Blegh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showtime Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Too bad the Seahawks didn't sign Lockett to this deal before Odell Beckham Jr. reset the receiver market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he would have bet on himself with a full season with Jimmy no doubt in my mind it would have cost us a lot more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
