DK Metcalf is such a tough one for me. Phenomenal talent, great teammate, and he really has improved as a route runner but man the lack of nuance and miscommunications in key moments are such a killer for a WR1.

And it’s not like the Seahawks can move him because they’re gonna lose Lockett and if you also ship off DK you’ve got JSN and nothing around Geno. DK just needs to be better.
I wish him a little humility during the off season so he can understand everything you just pointed out. I just don’t believe he’ll ever be humble enough to get his shit together. Hope I’m wrong if they keep him. Another tough game to watch. 🙄
Can't see paying him $32m+ in an extension, but he's good enough that I don't want to lose him either. But he just doesn't play with the aggression his size and speed imply - see the first half almost INT by Griffin when he just wasn't there
Are WR1s overrated? Look at what Joan Allen has been doing with a bunch of WR3s and WR4s. INTs are way down because he doesn’t have to force the ball to Diggs every series.
Geno also threw two passes that could have, and maybe should have, been easily picked off. The overwhelming love from certain NFL media (shoutout @greggrosenthal.bsky.social ) for Geno seems out of whack to me.
Am I wrong in not even thinking of him as WR1 at this point? I can’t think of any reason it isn’t JSN at this point. At least if we’re talking the product you see on the field.

Should've become an O-lineman like his dad.
He’ll be who he always has been, a big play, boom/bust wr2.
