TigerJ Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Whether you're for or "agin 'im" here's an article that talks about Metcalf from a health perspective: body fat percentage, neck injury, etc. https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2019/3/5/18249345/2019-nfl-draft-receiver-d-k-metcalf-has-a-crazy-body-fat-percentage-fact-or-fiction-nfl-combine
Da webster guy Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Too juiced up to even tell what his real NFL body will be like. Maybin 2.0 I think there is zero chance we take this guy. I have an unfounded hunch he's got the Sammy disease, gonna live on the injury reports. Steroids beat up your ligaments, tendons, and joints. I know he's technically clean now, but what damage has he done already. A.J. Brown or Parris in the 2nd. I saw Astro's catch rate breakdown and cried a little to see Hakeem Butler at less than 50%. Im giving up on him. 1

Mr. WEO Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Yeah but how can we not be all in on Metcalf now? 1 6 2

And he wasn’t the juice monkey he was until his 3rd year. The problem with Boston was that he was a nut job. Which ultimately got in the way of his football career. But the dude could play. I don’t think Metcalf is half as good as Boston was as a receiver. 4

Metcalf certainly fits their MO up to this point. 2
FeelingOnYouboty Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 I did not think D.K. Metcalf was going to be this year's Josh Allen but here we are LOL! 1 2

This guy has boom-or-(more-likely)-bust written all over him.

gjv001 Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Wonder what these draft genius's would have said about Julio Jones after he screwed up on the 20 yd shuttle. 1
TigerJ Posted March 5, 2019 Author Posted March 5, 2019 I am wary of a modest injury risk with Metcalf, and his less than stellar 3 cone results, but I'm not going to write him off for being too fit. I would not be disappointed if he were the Bills' pick, but I'm fine if they go in a different direction. 1

Reed83HOF Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 It doesn't matter. Those who have a hard-on for him still see him as the second coming of Calvin Johnson, who sure did an awful lot for Stafford and Detroit in his career - I still can't get over the multiple MVP awards and Super Bowl victories. It's comical, I feel this is the same type of crowd who said EJ needs more time or Tyrod will improve and needs mroe time - there is no room for rational discussion.... 1
