LA Rams: Ranking NFC West WRs for fantasy football draft

Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf makes Seattle dangerous

Seattle is looking to make a deeper run in the 2020 playoffs. All their key contributors are back. Their two highly productive receivers will add to their fantasy football value.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is an explosive type of receiver. He stands 5-feet-10 weighing 182 pounds. Still, Lockett puts up big numbers for a small receiver.

Last season, he caught 82 passes for 1057 yards with 8 touchdowns. Lockett averaged 12.9 yards per catch and caught 74.5% of the balls thrown to him. He returns kicks for Seattle’s special teams unit.

OK, now for D.K

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf is a big receiver that makes big plays. He stands 6-feet-4 weighing 229 pounds. The rookie receiver had some big stats in 2019.

Metcalf caught 58 passes for 900 yards with 7 touchdowns. He averaged 15.5 yards per reception. However, he caught just 58% of his targeted passes.

Russell Wilson is the catalyst for the Seattle offense. He is able to extend plays that allow the two receivers to get loose for big gains. They benefit from each other’s presence on the field.

Opposing defenses have to defend the whole field instead of one receiver. Make sure to add Lockett or Metcalf to your fantasy draft list. Don’t forget, their running back is pretty good too.

If you haven’t already guessed, here’s the NFC West’s top receiving corps.
