DK Metcalf is now a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Adam Schefter reports that Metcalf was traded for the Steelers 2nd round pick and will also have a new 5-year, $150 million contract. 

This news comes at a great time for DK Metcalf who was both looking for a new deal and team. Having lost his starting quarterback Geno Smith in a trade to the Raiders, it set up for an organic parting of ways.  Metcalf was WR-32 last year, but managed to have a 118.0 Explosive Rating (EPX) which ranked 10th at his position. 

DK Metcalf has played at least 15 games every season of his 6 year career and never had less than 900 yards receiving. Metcalf will be opposite of George Pickens in the formation, terrorizing NFL defenses. On Underdog, Metcalf is going off the board as WR-24 in round 4. Expect an uptick in ADP going forward.
