From the episode

DK Metcalf can take a five-yard slant for an 80-yard touchdown, and that is not Michael Pittman's game. But if you just want to bet on who's a better fit, who works in that short area where Rodgers likes to throw, clearly it's Pittman.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Metcalf worse Rodgers fit than Pittman; Silva ranks him 91st overall.

Silva prefers Pittman over Metcalf despite Metcalf being at 91 overall against home league ADP of 85 (meaning the market prefers Metcalf). Metcalf's game—taking short slants for explosive plays—does not align with Aaron Rodgers' quick-release, short-area passing style; Pittman is the better fit for Rodgers' system and will be the Steelers' best receiver.
