I often have a soft spot for veteran players who command a boring discount, but I can't quite commit to DK Metcalf this year. He's entering his age-29 season and his yards per target have fallen the last two years. More importantly, the Steelers brought Aaron Rodgers back for his age-43 season — so we have to be muted with our expectations about this team's pace and passing volume. For all of Metcalf's talent, he'll probably miss out on 1,000 yards for the third straight season.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Metcalf's declining YPT and Rodgers' age-43 season limit upside; likely third straight sub-1K season.

Scott Pianowski cannot commit to Metcalf despite his talent and a boring discount at age 29. His yards per target have fallen the last two years, and with Aaron Rodgers returning for his age-43 season, the Steelers' pace and passing volume should be muted. Metcalf will probably miss out on 1,000 yards for the third straight season.
