When the Seahawks traded up in the third round of the NFL Draft to select wide receiver Tyler Lockett, they didn’t do so for his pass-catching skills. No, the Seahawks made that move because they were desperate to find someone who could change a game with dynamic return skills on special teams.
That is exactly what Lockett is. It only took the game tape from two games to find two punt returns and two kick returns that showed off his dynamic athleticism. Lockett does such a good job of finding seems to run through that he almost never gets bottled up before he can get up field.
