Michael Pittman Jr.'s Dynasty Outlook Clouded by Long-Term Quarterback Uncertainty in Pittsburgh

Saturday, June 6, 12:40 PM

After spending the first six seasons of his NFL career with the Indianapolis Colts, wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers in March. Across 17 games with the Colts in 2025, Pittman Jr. recorded 80 receptions for 784 yards and seven touchdowns on 111 targets. While the 28-year-old has never been the most explosive downfield threat, he's made his bones as a possession receiver who can consistently win in the short and intermediate areas of the field. That may make him a perfect fit with Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who prefers to get the ball out of his hands as quickly as possible at this stage of his career. Still, Pittman Jr.'s production has generally been declining since his highest-usage year in 2023, when he hauled in 109 catches for 1,152 yards on 156 targets. He also faces target competition in Pittsburgh from veteran wideout DK Metcalf and rookie wide receivers Germie Bernard and Kaden Wetjen. In dynasty formats, managers may want to look to sell high on Pittman Jr.

Jameson Williams Needs to Show More Consistency in Clearly Defined Role

Monday, May 4, 7:30 AM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is coming off a WR12 finish in fantasy football, but consistency has been an issue for the former first-round pick. Williams had seven games with fewer than 7.0 fantasy points in PPR leagues last year, including a pair of zero-point finishes. His consistency (or lack thereof) is preventing him from being a plug-and-play low-end WR1 on a weekly basis. Williams' role is clearly defined, as the Lions use him to stretch the field while giving Amon-Ra St. Brown some of the safer targets. That explains why he's been more boom-or-bust, but it shouldn't necessarily prohibit him from producing more consistently. Fantasy managers will look for Williams to be more dependable in 2026 and beyond. One possible solution for dynasty managers is trading Williams now, because the WR12 finish from last year masks how up-and-down his season actually was.
