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.

Exactly. He's coming off his rookie contract, seeing what Adams and Hill just got for contracts. He's going to want something very similar. He's not going to want any short term deal, he's gonna want his payday. The Chiefs would be putting themselves right back into the position they just got out of with Hill.
