Pittman to absorb short targets from RBs/TEs under McCarthy's scheme.

Under Mike McCarthy's scheme, Pittman is positioned to take short targets that previously went to RBs and TEs in the Arthur Smith offense, representing a direct volume increase for the WR despite similar ADP to DK Metcalf; the source notes Pittman's workload doesn't necessarily cannibalize other receivers since Rodgers sent one-fourth of his passes to RBs last year, creating room for more WR targets.
