FantasyPros Articles on DK Metcalf
From the article
Every time I think DK Metcalf should smash, he turns in a wet fart stat line. Metcalf is the WR36 in fantasy points per game, with four games this season with fewer than nine PPR points. The coverage structure is in his favor, but Cleveland has been shutting down perimeter wide receivers.
STACKED’s take
Metcalf's inconsistency and Cleveland's elite perimeter defense create bust risk.
The source expresses frustration with Metcalf, noting "Every time I think DK Metcalf should smash, he turns in a wet fart stat line." Metcalf started hot with 56 receiving yards in the first half last week before falling asleep after halftime. He is WR36 in fantasy points per game with four games this season with fewer than nine PPR points. He has 21.9% target share, 1.41 YPRR, four red zone targets, 14 deep targets, and 31.7% first-read share. Against single high, his TPRR has risen from 20% to 23% and YPRR from 1.11 to 1.56, but Cleveland has allowed the fifth-fewest yards per target and fourth-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers over the last five games.
