I understand that everyone is high on DK Metcalf and they should be.
• 6'4" / 229lbs Dec 14, 1997 / 22 in his second year
• Big bodied X - year one - they master the art of my ball go routes and slants
• He proved that and mastered everything that was given to him
• Let me explain the X a little further. He is the X in a traditional pro set offense
• He is a HUGE part of the offense because he will be doubled
• Its the RB X WR and TE who are the target/red zone hogs in this type system
• The traditional pro set evolved from the T formation where you had the Y U (2TE) QB 2 RB and a FB its design is for the run because there are no WR’s on the field
• Back in the old days the rules changed and catered more towards passing (sounds familiar)
• So the 3rd RB became the Z and the U TE became the X ISO and the most important pass catcher
• The X’s job is to create running space for the RB with his dominance on the boundary
• This is why by default he is the number one target on the team with no debate
• DK got 100 targets and caught 58 for 900 with 7 touchdowns. This is great for a rookie
• The traditional pro set yields 1200+ with 10+ year in and year out when ran right because it has to
• I look for an uptick from DK because he will be asked to do more and more with more targets to help Chris Carson gain more yards. It all works together
• This is by design or scheme and nothing else. DK just fits perfectly
• Hes coming off the board at the 5.2 in FFPC ppr redraft but his real value is in dynasty
• Guys like Metcalf are a dying breed. They don’t make them like this anymore
• Out of all 32 teams there are about 12 BALLERS at X and they score HUGE for fantasy. Count DK in. He’s a young Julio Jones in Seattle. DK will be used the same
• The X WR is getting smaller and shiftier in the new age NFL
• Look at Houston they shipped off their X and replaced him with a smaller faster Cooks – It's the new NFL
• Wrap this up with a smart organization stable coaching staff stability by not learning a new play book every year and a front office that's always adding talent to help him.
• With someone winning there has to be a loser and in this case - Tyler Lockett
Tyler Lockett will soon be phased out and replaced so they can pay DK the big bucks when its time - Lockett's guaranteed money dissolves at the end of the 2021 season so smart Lockett owners will be out by then.
• Dynasty outlook year three or next year you should really see him being comfortable and dominating the league and a force for years to come.
