Metcalf was actually productive in both his So and Jr seasons (Jr year cut short) and then he came out early. That's nothing like Leggett who literally did jack and shit for 4 years before going off in his 5th. Leggett has an ID10T issue or he juiced. That's that on that. Not a 1st rounder. Hell, I'd be leary in the 2nd. |

Juiced? Depends on your definition. I tend to believe most professional athletes are Juiced at least in the offseason, its just so incredibly common amongst average guys at your local gym. If his answer is "started working with a new trainer" I could see this being the case. Reportedly, he worked his ass off in the offseason to develop in to the guy he was this season. Takes his development pretty seriously, and at least made the best with his opportunity. Was the problem intelligence? Hmmm IDK, maybe, he doesn't sound like brightest bulb during this interview but he does seem like a focused athlete: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RX4V1BgK_20 Most likely just got a fresh start/look from the new coaching staff and QB his final year, he'd worked hard enough that when their #1 WR went down they were happy to feed him the rock to help his pro push. He road the momentum. |

It's that he did NOTHING. Nothing at all. 42 catches for about 400 yards in four seasons is just ghastly. It's just awfully hard to look past that. New QB, new staff - whatever. If you're an NFL player you're going to produce and for 4 seasons he did absolutley nothing. He very clearly wasn't an NFL prospect for the first 4 years of his career and honestly I don't think "well he worked hard" is a good enough explanation for what he suddenly became in his 5th season. There's just some fishiness there. I'd probably go ahead and gamble at the back of the 2nd but like you, that's not a certainty. |

Metcalfs whole college career was less productive than legette this year lol. Watching them they play the same way. They seem to have similar speed and size. I would be ****ing ecstatic if the chiefs chose to take him at 32 because he meets the eye test, and if the chiefs take him it means they have a really good feeling about him in this offense.

Thats fine, we are allowed to have different opinions. I dont care what he did two years ago, he was dominant this year in the SEC at 22 years old, plus he has size and speed. We keep winning championships, so these are the receivers that will be in striking range in the draft. Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
