Mike Garafolo: Panthers are in on DK Metcalf trade

For DK, I would be willing to give our 2nd and 4th.

TBH, that is probably an overpay with the cost associated with his salary.

I also understand that it's slightly different calculus with a huge contract extension.

I believe DK opens up our offense on a huge scale. (Particularly when paired with the guys we already have)  I would count that in favor for compensation

I mean, ideally that is true. The reality could be considerably different.

DK gives you a true split end who won’t get bodied at the line. It’s something we don’t have.  XL didn’t prove he was anything near that last year. I think of XL as a big Deebo, but with less physicality. 

I think we all want DK, its just that sweet spot of what we give up in capital and what we have to pay him

What do you think about that ?

Carolina receives: DK Metcalf and picks 1.18, 3.82, and 4.137.

Seattle receives: picks 1.8, 3.74, and 4.113.

This essentially involves swapping first-, third-, and fourth-round picks.

I think it will take less than that honestly.

    • Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
    • my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.   
    • It's a subjective stat that PFF made up. https://www.pff.com/news/pro-pff-qb-grading-most-effective-tool-there-is
