Availability

Ricardo Lockette caught two passes for 43 yards and one touchdown against Carolina.
Fantasy Impact
Lockette was able to score on a long flea flicker play on Sunday. Lockette is not used much in the offense, but has the wheels to score whenever he touches the ball. He may score a TD here and there, but he's way down on the targets pecking order on a run first team.
Head Coach Pete Carroll said that Ricardo Lockette, Kevin Norwood, and Chris Matthews will see snaps as the third WR in the Conference Title game against Green Bay
Fantasy Impact
If you're looking for a possible lightening in a bottle type player for DFS purposes, Lockette is an interesting option. Standing 6'2, weighing in at 211 pounds, and posting a 4.37 40 time, Lockette makes most of his catches down-field on fly routes. Primarily a special teams player, Lockette actually had his best statistical season of his career in 2014, posting a 11-195-2 line on 15 targets. With his special teams responsibilities being of great value to the team, don't look for Lockette to be on the field as a receiver often, but when he is, he's going to be targeted deep.
Ricardo Lockette had one catch for six yards.
Fantasy Impact
Really it was one catch for -9 yards, as Lockette was flagged for taunting on his catch, taking the Seahawks out of field goal range. Daily gamers may want to turn to Lockette next week, as his long-speed and is in line for a possible role increase with Paul Richardson injured.
