Does Prosise count as a sleeper also, I mean nobody has seen much of him yet.

Definitely, if you're someone who thinks his added weight will help keep him healthy enough to contribute this year. His explosiveness, cutting ability, field vision are upper echelon. But most people aren't expecting anything from him due to his past injuries.

Definition of a sleeper then, when someone doesn't exspect anything and they bursts on the scene.

There no way Tyler Lockett can be considered a "Sleeper"

I don't know about that. Lockett has faced criticism over his raw numbers: 664 yards as a rookie, 597 in his 2nd year, 555 last year. Some people have said they prefer Paul Richardson to him.

I think this could be a "breakout" year for Lockett if he is better utilized by our new OC.

The difference in opinion must lie in the difference in definition. Tyler Lockett is the real deal.

Can Lockett become an 800+ yard receiver (and one day a 1k WR)? I think so.

Tyler Lockett is no sleeper. He is the real deal. :2thumbs:

He took a step back last year, yes he was coming off injury, but maybe call it his resurgence, we and others know what he was capable of before the injury.

Lockett was awful last year. I would have rather shipped him off for a 6th rounder and then kept Paul Richardson.

That's just crazy talk. One has nothing to do with the other. Paul got too much money, and with Locketts return skills and WR talent, he's going to do good things this year. Coming off a devastating injury, then playing in a garbage offense would hold any player back.

Agree. These guys aren't sleepers. One was a pro bowler, and another led the team in rushing by a mile prior to getting hurt. Lame analogy IMO. I expect a lot out of 2 of those 3. That is not what a sleeper is.

Will Dissly - he won’t get the stats, but his blocking help help the run game excel this year.

DJ Fluker - just mashing people and taking names. Many people thought he was a joke of a signing, but I think he'll be just what our running game needs upfront.

Everything about Tyler Lockett, from his build to his college tape and ankle breaking ability *screams* Antonio Brown clone. I blame Bevell for not utilizing him properly. The kid could be a monster.

Hack writers....they should have just said Russell Wilson.

My list would be:
-Poona Ford
-Dion Jordan
-Will Dissly

And here I thought we got rid of Cable.

Psst, it's for Seahawks Offensive Roster.

I think Carson is a good pick. People just assume Penny will be the guy having been drafted in the first round. Carson is a beast, could definitely win the primary role.
