Diontae vs DK and why?

Metcalf easily for me straight up. Alpha wr with an alpha build, crazy speed and physically difficult to cover.

Value alone, go with DK and you could trade DK and get way more than you could for Dionte, if you don’t like DK. But DK is a physical freak and hard matchup for anyone with true #1 WR alpha traits. Much more so than Dionte who has toasters for hands.

I'm quite surprised that this is even a debate, and I'm a Steeler fan and quite high on DJ.

Diontae + a early/mid 1st = DK

Fantasy or not, DK by a good margin.

Depending on who you trust as your source of football knowledge Diontae isn't even the top WR on his team.

DK is clearly the Alpha WR/game changer, he already posted a top 10 season for a WR and is younger than Diontae. His play on the field also matches his fantasy output/potential to be a top 10 fantasy WR for almost the next 5+ years.

For comparison sakes the ceiling on the players are:

DK = Calvin Johnson/ Julio Jones

DJ = Tyler Lockett

I own DJ but it's definitely D.K. by a large margin. Metcalf is arguably a top 5 Dynasty WR. DJ is maybe a top 25... that's just of the top of my head.

There is an entire WR tier, maybe 2 tiers, between these two for me. I don't think Wilson is really going anywhere, and even if he did, it would put their QB situations pretty much on par with each other. I'd rather have DK regardless of situation.
