DK Metcalf

DK is in the best situation for him. An offense that doesn't rely on precision and timing. But against us that might be harder now, with our majorly upgraded pass rush.

Wilson always buys time and our safeties are terrible.

Sherm will own DK for the next year or two


You mean like when he got trucked over by Vance McDonald? DK will flatten him. LOL.

Then i hear the phone call between metcalf and carroll. Wow.



Not the crying, that is fine. Whyd you wait so long?


Yea, saw that on YouTube. DK is a great kid. He will be so appreciative of Pete Carroll and the Seahawks and will play his guts out for them.

They know how to develop WRs. Honestly, perfect spot for him.

You're kidding right? Lmao..


No one is kidding. Is a fact.

How many times have we been carved up by the Seahawks' WRs? I've lost count.

To be fair they still have Brian Schottenheimer as OC.


But in seriousness with our revamped DL, on paper it won't be as easy as it has been these last 4 years or so.

Right, because this one isolated example you chose has been the norm for Sherm when he matches up with big WRs...

Dude, is simple physics. DK has 33 lbs on Sherman for God's sake!! LOL.

Not only that, we now have 2 x huge WRs to take care of within division, add Hakeem Butler on top of DK.

Lol...its also a fact that DK is nowhere near the player Tate and Baldwin is. Tate and Baldwin are great route runners that wins with separation. That's how they been beating us. DK on the other hand, he runs a great 9 route and can't separate for sh!t. Different skill sets, so yah.

Btw, Seattle is not the only team that carved us bad with their WRs. Its almost every team we played for the past 5-6 years. Why?? Maybe, maybe because we didn't have any elite Pass Rushers in the last 5-6 years that scares any QB. Guess what.....WE DO NOW!!

You can pair an Evans or Calvin (limited route runners) with a Jackson or Tate. The notion that every receiver has to run the full route tree to be effective is not how it works.

Tate and Bladwin? Name me a single Seahawks WR that hasn't smoked the 9ers before. I have lost count, all of their WRs have smoked us before, Lockette, Lockett, Kearse, etc, etc. If every single one of their WRs have smoked us before and you are saying DK can't, then you are just being a hater and nothing more.

Are you suffering from Amnesia? You mean to tell me we didn't have a pass rush when we had Justin Smith, Aldon Smith, Patrick Willis...? Dude, when we were the top 3 D, we were still getting raped by the Seahawks. In fact, it was so bad, even in the year when we went to the Super Bowl we still got completely raped by the Seahawks in both games in 2012.

Lmao..You really wanna go there? You asked for one, I'll give you a couple. Since you mentioned 2012, let's start there. I'll give you their Seattle CAREER stats against my beloved Niners. Forgive me, I had to do some research because I'm diagnosed with Amnesia remember!

Sydney Rice (3-46yds-0TD)(3yrs)
Golden Tate (16-164-0TD)(4yrs)
Jermaine Kerse (21-297-0TD)(5yrs)
Paul Richardson (14-159-2TD)(5yrs)

For sh!ts and giggles...Seattle WRs vs 49ers in 2012:

1st game:
Tate: 0-0-0
Baldwin: 2-15-0
Rice: 2-32-0
Obomanu: 3-50-0
Kerse: DNP

2nd game:
Tate: 2-27-0
Baldwin: 4-53-2TDs..whew finally!
Rice: 1-14-0
Kerse: 1-17-0
Obomanu: 0-0-0

That wasn't so bad isn't it? Idk about you. But I wouldn't called that a "completely raped by the Seahawks in both games in 2012". Btw, we split with Seahawks that year, well look who has Amnesia now.

I wont even mention the other WRs because its embarrassing. Baldwin is the ONLY Seattle WR that torched us consistently. Next time you call me out and make a bold statement like that. Pls do your homework 1st before you come at me....Dude.

Good day...Winter is already here!

If not for his 40 time, based off his production, film and other drills, hes a late 4th or 5th round pick, most likely. He's just another workout warrior that looks great in shorts but wont be an impact player. Just think about this. Against alabama he had that 75 yard TD right off the bat. Then what? Nothing. Not even with another WR that went before him playing. How was it that a team with no real high secondary prospects shut him down after that play?

If he's soooooo dominant, why'd he disappear and ole miss not score another TD after that?

Where was AJ Brown vs Bama? Only so much you can do because if the o line is outmatched that can be a death sentence. Miss had 7 completions that game.

Hmmm, me thinks Pete lies to DK.

"DK, we going to draft you but you need to play the role during your visits to other teams."

GM to Pete during the first round: "Good job, Pete. DK did his job. Nobody going to pick him so we can get him with our first rounder."

Pete:"No, we will trade back. He blew it so hard that we can get him in the later rounds. What a fool to believe me, muwahahaha! They don't call me Pete the Cheat for no reason."
