He was in most people's 2nd batch of players (after the QBs and Chubb, Nelson, Barkley) and the consensus was he was in play anywhere from #8 with Chicago through to about #20 and Dallas. That said he did go earlier than people expected at #4. I think Metcalf is too, a 1st rounder that is. In my eyes he's in play anywhere between 6 & 24, with relatively likely spots being Jacksonville, Buffalo, Denver, Miami, Green Bay, Washington, Seattle, and Oakland.

No way he’s a top 10 pick. Trade back if this is the guy you want. I wouldn't be a huge fan of us drafting DK Metcalf either... but where in the world are these mocks where he isn't a 1st Round Pick? Are you talking about legitimate media sites, or just a group of regular fans making picks? I follow pretty much every major draft site and haven't seen anyone mocking him outside the first round. He's most definitely the consensus #1 WR and is going between about #8-25 in just about every mock draft I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drf1835 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Here is my concern: Metcalf likely does finger, palm and knuckle pushups too. His hands likely may be too bulgy, such that Allen's thrown darts would bounce off those hard. rippled hands. On the orher hand, Jerry Rice seemed thin as a skeleton and used to catch bricks, to put his hands in shape. Not sure if the other way around, soft ball, in muscular hands work.

I don't think anybody is trading up to take anybody other than a QB Although when it comes to the draft there's always some ridiculously outlandish draft day move-up that makes people scratch their heads Not saying it's a smokescreen, but many teams throw out bad information to hide interest in their true target. Teams trade up to grab position players all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansLanda Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 If they trade down, maybe, but huge risk at 9. Unless he is the second coming of Julio - which there is nothing saying he is remotely close to that - then you have to take a safe, plug-and-play starter on the O or Dline.

Florida Bills Fanatic Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Depending on who is picked in 1 through 8, it is possible that he could be the BPA. I don't think it will fall that way, but it is possible. It wouldn't be horrible but I'm hoping for better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) I could see it. Verticals all day. Metcalf size and speed would put a ton of pressure on secondaries with Allen’s arm. He’s not easy to cover. That’s just out of the box, go routes. Might as well go full Josh Allen offense, cater to his strengths. If I had to bet money on them taking him at 9 though? No, I would not.

gjv001 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 If Bosa, Williams, Allen, and Oliver are off the board, I happy with drafting Metcalf at 9. The dream scenario would be getting one of the top 4 Dlinemen and moving into the mid to high 20s and drafting Metcalf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobChalmers Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Meh - I'd much rather have Hock - who's their TE now? Cincy's backup? They can't seriously think that's good enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think the Redskins at 15 will pick him if they don't go Quarterback. But I wouldn't be convinced that all those WR needy teams you list above have DK as their WR1. I think and get the sense that there is a lot of disagreement around the league over the order to rank these receivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
