I have him as my WR2 and was really excited about having him and Brown. Those that drafted him how nervous does this make you?

I kept him for $21 in my league.

Honestly, it doesn't overly concern me. It's obviously not ideal, but I wasn't expecting him to be 100%. I'm just glad to see he's on track to play Week 1.

He's a tough player who will fight through injury, so I still see him as a mid-WR2 with the possibility of sneaking into the WR1 conversation. And for where he's going in drafts, that's a bargain.

He’ll miss games & will be inconsistent. Their WRs suck too. He’s gonna have a tough time if he’s hurt

Slightly, but not too much, as long as you aren't relying on him as your WR1

Saying you are gonna be at 80% all year is not very good.

Baldwin is a competitor though, hopefully he just fights through it.

No one is at 100% in the NFL. Him quantifying could be scaring people maybe too much.

This was my logic. The question to me wasn’t “is he going to be 100%?” it was “is he going to play?”

If he’s out there, he’s good to go. I still think he is a WR2 with WR1 upside. Maybe that turns out to be wrong, but I’ve already drafted so I’m all in.

Ok but most guys are near 100% going into week 1. Maybe by the end of the year or even mid season, they are 75, 80, 85%? If he’s starting at 80 he’s going to be in bad shape come November

He’s 80-85 right now

I would assume most players have a full 100% battery right now

So when other guys are 80%, will he be 60%? Orthos on twitter says it could get worse. If it’s osteoarthritis that shite doesn’t get better

Does this boost Lockett's Value? Lockett also just signed a new deal as well.

In my eyes, yes. I think this is his year.

If he can stay healthy, he’s worth monitoring. He had a bad injury and is already hurt again though

Watch jaron brown

I wonder what Locket does this year now that he is fully healthy?

He hasnt been 100% in two years, they just extended him so they see something.

Could be a great WR3.

he’s missed the last two games with a foot or a toe. Sounds like it was Stepped on per ESPN player profile

I got him as the 16th WR off the board, which I think is worth the risk. Considering there are a bunch of targets gone with JG and PR gone He’ll have to miss a bunch of games to not return Top 20 WR value
