Pittman valued 13 spots above ADP as Rodgers' preferred underneath target in Pittsburgh.

Pittman is ranked WR39 overall with ECR vs. ADP of +13, indicating expert consensus values him above current draft position. Now in Pittsburgh, he projects as a reliable possession receiver and Aaron Rodgers' preferred underneath target in a pass-happier offense under HC Mike McCarthy. While his fantasy ceiling may be limited compared to DK Metcalf's splash-play upside, his volume and red-zone involvement should keep him firmly in the WR3 mix. If the Steelers lean heavily on quick-game concepts, Pittman could easily lead the team in receptions and targets.
