DK Metcalf has established himself as the number one option in this offense and is the only wide receiver of note to have already played with Aaron Rodgers, which likely matters. Last season, Metcalf adapted his game to suit Rodgers' old-age inability to push the ball downfield.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Metcalf's red-zone dominance and McCarthy's pass-heavy scheme support ADP value.

Metcalf is undervalued at ADP 87 as the Steelers' clear number one receiver under offensive-minded coach Mike McCarthy (not Arthur Smith's run-heavy approach). Metcalf is the only Steelers receiver of note to have played with Aaron Rodgers. In 2025, he adapted to Rodgers' limitations by becoming a YAC monster with 7.2 yards-after-the-catch per reception (fourth-most among 50+ target receivers), a massive increase from his 4.25 career average. He led the Steelers with 13 red-zone targets (six more than any other player) despite Pittsburgh scoring only 14 red-zone touchdowns (tied for 20th). If red-zone production is maintained and the Steelers improve offensively, he'll outperform ADP.
