DK Metcalf

Wilson always buys time and our safeties are terrible.

Wilson will scramble around for 21 seconds and just huck it 50 yards downfield to this guy every time. Perfect spot for him.
As someone who has seen this kid up close and personal since he was in high school, his talent is in a class by itself. He has just toyed with the competition as if he was a man amongst boys (which actually was the case, from a talent perspective) since he first stepped on a football field. One word of caution: he has suffered some other significant injuries that the mainstream media has failed to mention. I believe this is why he was viewed as such a draft risk by the NFL. From my understanding that has been produced from reading some of his hometown newspaper articles from years back, he missed at least 2 full seasons as a result of broken bones and/or ligament damage dating from his earliest playing days, which would be his middle school and varsity career. Don't quote me on the exact injuries because I would have to do some additional research, just know that in addition to the ones that have gotten coverage while at Ole Miss, he has had OTHER considerable injuries that is a part of his background. I would provide the sources but, unfortunately, I cannot find the archived version of the articles. That said, best of luck to D.K., and as a fellow Mississippian, I wish him the best (just not against the Niners ).

Not only that, the Seahawks have just signed another huge WR in Jazz Ferguson amongst the UDFAs whom we also scouted. If he makes the team, we could be facing 1 x 6'3' 228 lbs and 1 x 6'5' 223 lbs double-barrel shotgun of massive WRs coming our way twice a year and that is before we talk about Hakeem Butler from the Cards too. Likewise, with the spread offense that the Cards are about to implement with Kingsbury, I expect Kyler Murray should be able to get the ball down deep to Butler.

That's why this team has to get pressure from only the front 4. Thankfully sea and az have poor pass blocking lines

Let's hope so, bro. The good news is we have just upped our WR game another notch by signing Shawn Poindexter, another huge WR (6'5", 218 lbs). I guess Lynch and Shanny saw what the Seahawks and Cards were doing, so they must have decided add more to our arsenal to match up.

Unfortunate, yet in all likelihood too true. I can envision a minimum of 2 TD's per season (away & home),
unless something changes. The D-Line will need to pressure RW into throwing before he wants to do so.

Whether or not he catches it..50/50.
Metcalf is going to dominate our secondary, and the hilarious part is that he doesn't even need change of direction speed or quickness. Wilson will just scramble all over the place buying time, and all Metcalf needs to do is find the soft spot in our zone defense and wait for the ball.

Jimmie Ward, good luck bro. It's gonna be like that time you tried to cover Brandon Marshall and embarrassed yourself on primetime TV.

He cant catch the ball and you think he is going to dominate?
He went to the perfect place that will keep feeding him steroids.

Jimmie Ward? You mean "Glassman"? DK will smash him into pieces. One stiff arm from DK, Ward will have to go on IR. LOL.
