I don't think Metkalf actually helps them all around as a receiver the way they need. KC doesn't need another deep-only threat. It needs a guy that can deep and hurt teams against single coverage, but who also can make plays underneath and intermediate areas.

If they didn't have Hill, Metkalf is a better fit. Since they do, Lockett is not a bad bet to me.
