Look at it this way. These are his stats in three seasons with the run first Seahawks.
2019 - 900 yards and 7 TDs
2020 - 1303 yards and 10 TDs
2021 - 967 yards and 12 TDs
Great, right? Now put him in this offense like everyone wants. What do you think his stats are going to be? Hill had 1239 yards and 9 TDs last year. 1276 yards and 15 TDs the year before that.
If Metcalf has around 1250 yards and 12 TDs....he's for sure going to want to be paid like a top 3 WR. He'll be 25 years old and in a high scoring offense. Plus he knows that he'll get paid someplace else if it isn't here.
He could EASILY get paid like Hopkins or Adams.

Even if that's the case (though currently, DK isn't regarded like a Hill, Adams or Hopkins) the Chiefs will be better poised to pay him next offseason than they were to pay Hill this offseason.
They'll see a younger player (Hill seemingly slowed down a little bit last season) and they'll see a a greater Salary Cap.
And we already know the Chiefs were willing to pay out a top 3 WR contract.
So i don't buy it that they aren't pursuing this.
For the last two weeks ive been saying i believe the Chiefs will trade for a top tier WR on a rookie contract. I still firmly believe that and i'll believe that all the way till our 1st round selections are made.
This move has Chiefs written all over it.
And I honestly think DK might be a BETTER match for Mahomes than Tyreek was.
