Metcalf's 13.3 air yards per target ranked fourth highest among all receivers (min. 200 targets), but he saw that number drop to 10.6 AY/TGT last season playing with Aaron Rodgers, whose 3.7 average depth of target on completed passes (compADOT) ranked dead last among 29 QBs

Positive signalProjection

Metcalf's air yards dropped with Rodgers; Pittman arrival threatens volume.

Metcalf's air yards per target dropped from 13.3 (fourth-highest among receivers with 200+ targets during his final two Seahawks seasons) to 10.6 AY/TGT with Aaron Rodgers, whose 3.7 average depth of target on completed passes ranked dead last among 29 QBs (min. 300 dropbacks) last season. While Metcalf averaged 12.5 PPG and finished as a top-24 PPR receiver in 40 percent of his games, the arrival of Michael Pittman Jr. and Rodgers' reluctance to push the ball downfield could make replicating those numbers far more difficult.
