Julio may be a more polished receiver, but "way" more complete athlete?
Dude, you obviously don't know what you are talking about. The combine numbers are the best since.....Julio.
Sheesh, Maelstrom, bro, you must seriously hate DK...Maelstrom787":1kftso75 said:Mick063":1kftso75 said:misfit":1kftso75 said:Y'all gotta stop w the Julio comparisons. Julio is a way more complete athlete than DK

Or, maybe he did his research. DK Metcalf has horrible, and I mean BAD, agility numbers, which can be somewhat important for receivers. 7.38 3-cone and 4.5 shuttle were both worse than TOM BRADY did at his combine. 3rd percentile.
Julio had no such issues with agility.
Do you know what you're talking about? Big claims with big attitude should be backed with big evidence.

Not really. The slot guy vs the outside big X.
Different players. Like trying to compare a leadoff hitter with someone who bats cleanup. Different skill sets entirely.
Metcalf fits the Seahawks perfectly. They will chuck it deep off of playaction, and Metcalf is going to feast.
I am reading that angry Doug might be done, with that Lockett the next slot WR with Metcalf playing flanker?

Metcalf is an X (Split End) . Calvin Johnson / Randy Moss type. a one trick pony, but it is a helluva trick.
He is the best deep ball target in this draft. Also an excellent red zone target with the ability to high point and catch in traffic, using his big frame and ridiculous vert. to go up and get it. He plays much bigger than 6-2 or whatever his list height is. He plays like he is 6-5, 6-6.
Very underrated after the catch, as he is a load, so smaller corners will have trouble bringing him down. If the corner misses the tackle he can take it to the house with his 4.3 speed.
There is higher bust potential with him then a lot of WRs in this draft for sure, but if that happens, I will bet it will be due to injury, not ability. He went to the perfect team.
They will ask him to play the David Moore spot. Which is pretty much running go & stop routes. With an occasional Slant/Post/Corner route thrown in.
They needed this player as it marries well with their run game.
You want to stack the box to stop Seattle's #1 run game? Now you will have to deal with Lockett & Metcalf running deep, and one of them will be single covered. Good luck with that, as Russell Wilson is one of the most accurate deep ball throwers in the game.
Check the breakdown video I posted above for a good scouting report on him.

He fits exactly what the Seahawks want from their X receiver.
DK gonna be nightmare when he gets his!

He's made for the X and I imagine he can block some in the run game.
Pete looks for big wideouts every year: Lawler, McEvoy, Harper, Norwood, Durham, ... I think this is the first one we've drafted that has elite speed. I think all the previous ones failed because, although they could break a coverage, they couldn't stay separated because the corners would close on them too quickly.
I can see this guy making a living on Go's and Slants because once the CB is in a trail position, he'll stay open. And even if they can close on a 4.4 guy, they're not going to be able to circumnavigate a 6'3" 230# obstacle to challenge a well thrown ball.
