Have we all seen WR D.K Metcalf?

Ole Miss WR D.K. Metcalf ran the 40-yard dash in an unofficial 4.33 seconds at the NFL Scouting Combine.

Metcalf (6'3/228) looked like a runaway truck down the track on Saturday as he made good on speculation of a monster run. He has had himself a big, big weekend thus far. Big, big weekend for a big, big dude. Taking part in the bench press on Friday, he put in 27 reps -- tying ASU's N'Keal Harry for most among combine wideouts --while NFL Network's Ian Rapoport passed along earlier in the week that the Ole Miss wideout has just 1.6-percent body fat. Metcalf's medicals are going to play into the final equation when it comes to draft slot, but assuming those check out, he should be considered a probable Day 1 selection. A top-10 pick is not out of the question.

I’m not advocating for us but it helps us. Also, John Ross was tiny compared to Metcalf as well as broken.

No doubt. I hope he goes top 10 and pushes guys back to us. He is an athletic freak, but is he a football player? I dont think so and again think his teammate AJ Brown will be the better player. Time will tell

Not saying we should go this way in the draft at all but, this guy is awful tempting and is quite the specimen as far as big WRs go. Rumor has he could run a sub 4.4 at this size..

Would love him if we didnt have dj moore and a plethora of other pass catchers but this would be a luxury pick for us and I dont think weve seen more then a glimpse of what moore is capable of.

John Ross was 4.28. He sucks as well

CAN we stop this.. Ross isn’t 6’3 228 built like a walking hurcules statue, 40 inch vertical and throwing up 27 reps. I don’t wanna hear brown is better or any of that crap.. D.K is showing you everything u need to see. And the guy is a football player.. I would not even be mad at him at 16. D.J Moore to one side D.k to the other and Samuel in the slot..

I get you have a man crush on him. Fine.. God I cant wait til the draft is over so we can concentrate on making the Panthers better instead of talking about weight room heroes

He's showing everything and more in terms of pure athleticism. In terms of being a football player? Yeah... the jury is definitely still out on that one.

He's the type of prospect that honestly might be hurt by going as high as he's going to go. It means he's going to be shoehorned onto the field right away no matter what. He'd probably honestly be better off being a 2nd or 3rd rounder will more reasonable expectations and none of the pressure of being a high 1st rounder.

We have never seen anything like D.K Metcalf.. don’t compare him to the guy that lined up beside him because that isn’t fair.. this is unseen potential and freak athletic ability.. he’s a human cheat code.

Feels like this is what's said about virtually every draft bust. When the production doesn't match the talent you have to ask why.

I do.. as does almost every scout or smart person that follows the draft. Go look at some tape and see a football player. He is that.
