DK Metcalf trade grades: Steelers add game-changing talent; Seahawks’ overhaul continues

The Pittsburgh Steelers have made a bold move by acquiring wide receiver DK Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks in exchange for a second-round pick in the 2025 draft. The trade comes after Metcalf requested a trade from the Seahawks, who were initially intent on keeping him with a contract extension.

The Seahawks, known for their physical, run-heavy offensive identity, likely drew a line at the $30 million market rate for premium receivers, leading to the decision to trade Metcalf while his trade value was high. In return, they will receive the No. 52 pick from the Steelers.

On the other hand, the Steelers have struggled at the wide receiver position in recent years, with productive performers fizzling out and veteran acquisitions not panning out. Metcalf brings a consistent track record of at least 900 receiving yards in all six of his NFL seasons, with three seasons topping 1,000 yards and an average of eight touchdowns per year. His downfield and physical abilities make him a great fit for Pittsburgh’s offense, provided they can solidify their quarterback situation.

The Steelers have made a significant move by locking Metcalf into a five-year, $150 million contract, pairing him with George Pickens to create a formidable receiving duo. Both receivers possess speed, playmaking ability, and the capacity to stretch the field, which will benefit other offensive options like tight end Pat Freiermuth and receiver Calvin Austin.

However, the big question mark remains at quarterback for the Steelers, with uncertainty surrounding Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and other free agents. The acquisition of Metcalf may make Pittsburgh a more attractive destination for available quarterbacks, but the team will need to address this position to fully capitalize on their new offensive weapons.

As for the Seahawks, the trade signifies a transitional offseason, with moves like trading quarterback Geno Smith and releasing wideout Tyler Lockett. They will now build around wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba and running backs Ken Walker and Zach Charbonnet, while also focusing on shoring up their offensive line and potentially finding a new quarterback. General manager John Schneider and his staff have a history of success in the draft, so the extra capital from the trade presents an enticing opportunity for the Seahawks to continue their roster building.

Overall, the trade grades are positive for both teams, with the Steelers earning a B+ for their aggressive move to acquire Metcalf and the Seahawks receiving a B for pivoting in response to Metcalf’s trade request. The success of these decisions will ultimately depend on how each team executes their respective visions moving forward.
