HOUSE Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 (edited) Seahawks rookie D.K. Metcalf to have knee surgery By Adam Maya NFL.com Published: Aug. 19, 2019 at 12:21 a.m. Updated: Aug. 19, 2019 at 06:16 a.m. By all accounts, rookie wide receiver D.K. Metcalf was having a strong summer for the Seahawks. His fall debut might be delayed. Seattle coach Pete Carroll told reporters Sunday that Metcalf needs surgery on his knee. Carroll didn't offer a definitive timetable for the dynamic athlete's return but said he would likely know more after the procedure, which is planned for Tuesday. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001042659/article/seahawks-rookie-dk-metcalf-to-have-knee-surgery Edited August 19, 2019 by HOUSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebandit27 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Stinks for him. Good kid, hard worker; I still think he's limited in what he can do, but there's no doubt he has a ton of potential. I'm sure he'll work himself back to full health as quickly as possible. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's way way way too top heavy. Those leg tendons are over-exercised and carrying more weight (arguably all muscle) than they should be. Those tendons are also now running routes, precise as possible, and that adds serious stress to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da webster guy Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I guarantee he's a lot less top heavy now that he's getting tested. There's a big window between the end of college football a rookie's first PED test. Just ask Aaron Maybin. You can juice away (assuming you use the right anabolic or hgh). I think Maybins weight loss was around 30lbs when he had to go natural. Metcalf is probably quite a bit smaller now, might help his chances to stay healthy.

It sounds like he hurt it last week, so I don’t think he was out there. Also Pete said it’s not that serious. Who knows though, he might just be saying that to keep the media at bay.

whatdrought Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Yeah, that was a concern for him. Bulk and raw athleticism doesn’t do much without flexibility. If he’s smart, he’ll scale back on the weights and start doing yoga or something to gain flexibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a buddy who's 5'6'' with arms almost as big as my thighs. The dumbass always skips leg day though so he's not very proportionally built. Hence his nickname "Chicken Legs".

Rock-A-Bye Beasley Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 " ...doctors believe it will be a quick recovery after getting clear look at his MRI" "When asked if Metcalf has a shot to play Week 1 against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sept. 8, Carroll simply repeated that they're optimistic." "Metcalf has been in line to be a major part of a Seahawks offense that no longer features Doug Baldwin." "'We're disappointed for him because he was off to a fantastic start, but I don't think this is going to derail him for long'" That's pretty much the rest of the article. If you only read the cherry picked quotes from the OP, you may have thought it was ok to gloat about being "right" predicting a draft prospect is going to get injured. I can do the same thing. I think Cody Ford is too heavy. He had a broken leg in college and that's the reason. I predict he will be injured at some point during his career playing FOOTBALL. We will see if I am correct. Expect a thread about it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCofNC Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 The guy is a MONSTER, I have my doubts how long he can hold up in the NFL for all thebreason stated above, he's super heavy for a guy that runs 4.4 and is expected to stop on a dime. I hope he turns out to be the beast ge could be, but i have my doubts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Maybins weight loss was around 30lbs when he had to go natural. Metcalf is probably quite a bit smaller now, might help his chances to stay healthy. With the mass that he put on I'd bet money he kick started a test cycle with a D-Bol cycle and more than likely finished with a Winny cycle. He's definitely not natural and I wouldn't be surprised if his recovery included some T-Bol. There's plenty of time to work that out of your system.

C.Biscuit97 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I hated the idea of us drafting him high because some people just fell in love with his combine numbers. I do think he is in a good place in Seattle where he will occasionally make some huge plays for them. But I don’t think he can ever be a 1. The guy i wish we took is Hakeem Butler. He would look great in this roster with the other guys we have and I believe has number 1 ability or a great compliment #2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
