There were victims in the organizational decision of the Seattle Seahawks to trade franchise quarterback Russell Wilson. Likely at the very top of that list is talented wide receiver DK Metcalf, who finds himself in an enviable position despite Seattle starting from scratch with a new offense and journeyman Geno Smith as the starting quarterback.
Below, we look at DK Metcalf‘s 2022 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.
Because Metcalf fell into the 2nd round of the 2019 draft, Seattle doesn’t have a 5th-year option on him. After this season, Seattle has only 3 options — sign him to a mega-deal extension, put the franchise tag on him (which became extremely expensive over the last 6 months with so many wide receivers on the move signing for $20 million or more a year) or let him walk in free agency to the highest bidder.
For a player who has never missed a game and has averaged 72 receptions for 1,057 yards and 10 touchdowns in his first 3 seasons, that is a tantalizing prospect.
