00:00Let's start with a big trade request out of Seattle after six

00:04years all six years of his NFL career with the Seahawks DK

00:08Metcalf wants out requesting a trade from the Hawks yesterday

00:14again a second round pick way back in 2019 is spent all six

00:19years of his NFL career with Seattle a hundred plus targets

00:24900 plus receiving yards in all six seasons, but now is looking

00:29for greener pastures somewhere else DK Metcalf wants to be on

00:34the move trying to leave Seattle.

00:37Yeah, and it looks like now the new mo which you know, the

00:39salary cap goes up every year.

00:40A lot of people have a lot of money to spend.

00:42So it's very rare that some of these really good players ever

00:44just reach true free agency.

00:46So the new free agency now is him a great player.

00:49I'm just going to force a trade and yes compensation will be

00:51handled, but I'll still get my money on a new team and force

00:54my way somewhere else and teams usually will say, you know,

00:56what what's in the best interest of our team right now?

00:59Is it having DK Metcalf at 30 million dollars a year?

01:01Is it having DK Metcalf upset that he's not getting paid or

01:04is it let's move on get a first-round pick and reestablish

01:07and go on the next run over the next three to four years and

01:09rebuild this franchise.

01:10But for me, this is big news around the NFL because as I just

01:13said teams have a lot of money to spend their teams like the

01:16New England Patriots picking up the phone on AJ Brown saying

01:19we are dying for a number one and other number ones hear that

01:22and say well, maybe a franchise on the come up.

01:25I'll get 15 targets a game.

01:27I'll be paid as one of the highest paid players in the NFL.

01:29You know what?

01:30Maybe the grass is greener on the other side, but for DK Metcalf

01:34this isn't like hey an aging veteran on the move.

01:36This is a guy in his prime that will be a difference maker on

01:39a team that needs a wide receiver.

01:41He could strike gold here forcing this trade.
