5 Historical Vegas Trends You Should Know for the Wild Card Round
What do the odds say about the wild card round for certain players -- like T.Y. Hilton's splits in shootouts -- and how can your fantasy football team benefit?

Lockett Doesn't Need Scoring to Win

More scoring is always a good thing for fantasy players, but some need it less than others. Tyler Lockett is one of those players. He has actually scored more in games with totals of 44.0 or fewer points.

Lockett sees a slight increase in these games, but he is mostly just incredibly efficient. He scores at a higher rate and averages an extra 1.1 yards per target. Lockett's entire game as a fantasy player is based on spiky efficiency. Low scoring affairs seem to have little effect on that.

At $7,000, Lockett is a top-five value on the main slate.
