Fantasy Football: When Should You Buy Low on Michael Pittman Jr?

Alright, listen up, y’all. We gotta talk about this fella, Michael Pittman Jr. See, some folks are sayin’ he’s a good buy, some sayin’ he ain’t worth a plugged nickel. Let me tell ya what I think, plain and simple.

Now, this year, things ain’t been so rosy for Pittman. His value’s gone down like a rock in a well. Them Colts, they ain’t playin’ so hot either, so he ain’t catchin’ as many balls as he used to. Folks are sayin’ he’s more like a benchwarmer than a star player now.

If you got one of them fantasy football teams, and you got space on your bench, I guess you could keep him. But don’t go expectin’ him to win you games every week. He ain’t gonna be no top-notch receiver, that’s for sure. He might catch a few balls here and there, but don’t hold your breath for nothin’ fancy.

Some young fella named Josh Downs, he’s the new hotshot on the team. They say he’s the number one receiver now. That means Pittman’s gettin’ less attention, less balls thrown his way. It’s like when the new calf comes along and the old cow gets pushed aside, you know?

Now, there’s this thing called a “Trade Analyzer.” Sounds fancy, huh? Well, them smart folks use it to figure out if a player’s worth tradin’ for. And they’re sayin’ Pittman ain’t worth much right now. So, if you’re thinkin’ of tradin’ for him, you better not give away too much. Don’t go sellin’ the farm for a pig in a poke, as they say.

• He used to be the main guy, the one they threw the ball to all the time.
• But now, things are different.

They got this new quarterback, Minshew. He threw the ball to Pittman a fair bit in one game, nine times they say. But that don’t mean nothin’ if it don’t happen every game. One good rain don’t make a crop, ya hear?

If you’re lookin’ for advice, them fantasy football fellas say he’s a “hold” if you got the room, but don’t go startin’ him every week thinkin’ he’s gonna win you the game. You gotta be realistic. He ain’t the player he used to be, at least not right now.

So, should you buy low on Michael Pittman Jr.? Well, it’s like buyin’ a used tractor. It might be a good deal if you get it cheap enough, and if you don’t need it to do too much work. But if you’re expectin’ it to plow a whole field by itself, you’re gonna be disappointed.

Pittman might be okay if you got a deep bench, or if you’re in a league where you can stash him on injured reserve. But don’t go countin’ on him to be your star player. He’s more like a spare tire now, somethin’ you use in a pinch.

And remember, them football players, they can get hurt, or they can just plain lose their mojo. So, even if you buy him cheap, there ain’t no guarantee he’ll be worth anything later on. It’s a gamble, like plantin’ seeds. Sometimes they grow, sometimes they don’t.

So, there you have it. That’s my two cents on Michael Pittman Jr. Take it or leave it, it’s up to you. Just don’t come cryin’ to me if he don’t pan out. I told you the truth, as plain as I could. Now go on and make your own decisions.
