Draft Metcalf as a CB


Recommended Posts

DK Metcalf is sneaky fast, good footwork, above average vertical leap, has shifty hips and has the ability to go up and get the ball. His agility and knack for finding the ball in a crowd is uncanny.

 

Please tell me this was a joke?

With that said, we would be wasting his talents as a WR. In the mold of the Seahawks and now the Jets we need a tall kid at CB and one who isn't afraid to turn, extend and deflect/catch the ball.

 

There is no reason why a talented kid like Metcalf should be relegated to WR. He can serve a purpose and that position is CB. Trust me...I know.

 

What's your thoughts on trading up for Bosa and turning him into an OT?

 

I mean who knows more about blocking an edge rusher than an edge rusher!

 

Am I doing this right?

The NFL misused Doug Flutie. The guy was a born kicker.

Metcalfe struggles with the 3 cone and the ability to have loose hips and you want him as a DB?  

 

While we are at it lets convert Vlad Ducasse into a successful WR since he sucks as a lineman

OP is correct and it takes some balls to project Metcalf as a CB. Scouts and GM’s are gun shy on his three cone numbers but matching him up with the Goodwins, Browns and Tyreek Hills of the league as a cover corner is not a bad idea at all. What all you disciples fail to understand is “versatility” means you place an athlete in the best position to succeed. Laugh all you want but an underperforming speedster WR who is tall and fast is a CB island I’d like to have (or maybe you didn’t notice we acquired an OT who decided to become a TE).

Three words: Three cone drill.  As a wide receiver with size and deep speed, Metcalf can get away with not having the shiftiest feet in the world.  He can be effective on deep routes by running away from slower CBs, and with his size and strength he can outfight DBs on contested balls.  But it is even more important for CBs to have superior change of direction skills and quickness than for WRs.  A shifty WR will leave DK Metcalf in the dust.

Not quite the same thing. One guy trying to salvage a career another about to start one as a top ranked WR. Come on.
