Definitely a boom or bust pick, but I think it was warranted after the last two picks. The last two players kind of reminded me of Ruskell guys. Low ceiling, high floor, good character dudes that won't be outright bust. Even if they don't meet expectations they will be good role players.
DK Metcalf is a player that has high bust potential, but also is a player that could be the next T.O, Megatron, or Julio Jones. His skillset is also exactly what the Seahawks love to do with their receivers regardless of their strengths or weaknesses. Metcalf doesn't have to be an all around player here. Another thing that must be mentioned is the routes that he excels at are what the likes of Julio and Megatron ran 70 percent of the time.
That video that was posted here earlier did a really good job of illustrating that the staff at Ole Miss didn't use him to his strengths. They really miss handled him as a player. When he was used in what he excelled at he was a menace. Our system is tailor made for a guy like DK Metcalf. Just look at what Moore was able to do this year, and he really has one route in his arsenal. Now imagine those same plays with a guy like DK Metcalf? A guy who is bigger, strong, better at boxing people out, and faster, longer arms.
