What Seahawks Are Demanding From Patriots For DK Metcalf
The New England Patriots appear to be in the market for a significant upgrade at wide receiver, with Seattle Seahawks star DK Metcalf emerging as a potential trade target.
Recent reports indicate the Seahawks might explore trading the 27-year-old two-time Pro Bowl selection after he requested to leave Seattle. For the receiver-needy Patriots, who are likely looking to surround rookie quarterback Drake Maye with more offensive weapons, Metcalf represents the type of elite talent that could transform their passing attack.
Any deal for Metcalf would come with substantial costs for New England. According to reports, Metcalf is seeking a new long-term contract worth approximately $30 million per year, placing him among the highest-paid receivers in the NFL.
The trade compensation would also be significant, though the Patriots have both draft capital and cap space to potentially make such a move. Metcalf’s production—consistently delivering 1,000+ yard seasons and touchdowns in Seattle—would address a glaring need in New England’s offense.
