Draft note

by John Paulsen

Kittle was the No. 2 tight end last season and may have finished first at his position had he not missed two games midseason due to a knee injury. His per game fantasy production was the same as Travis Kelce’s last year so he’s a fine pick in the second or third round for those owners wanting to lock up a stud tight end early.

49ers 'holding out hope' for QB Jimmy Garoppolo, TE George Kittle returns

The 49ers have been without start tight end George Kittle and starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo for the last month, but there may be a light at the end of the tunnel.

“I’m holding out hope for Jimmy for the last couple of weeks,” San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said, via Cam Inman of The Mercury News. “Same with Kittle. I think they’re in a similar boat, but that I mean that’s not guaranteed.”

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle is a name to pay attention to especially. If he's popped up on your waiver wire, you may want to take a shot on picking up a potential stud if you're planning a deep playoff run. Kittle can be stashed on IR until the timeline becomes more clear. If the 9ers are able to make the playoffs, it seems like both players may have a shot to be back by then.

SF TE George Kittle - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Seattle Seahawks

George Kittle had a quiet day against the Patriots last week, catching a modest five balls for 55 yards. Kittle has at least five targets in every game he’s played this year though, and he remains an elite fantasy option every week. He’s averaging nine targets per game and is the primary cog for the 49ers’ passing offense.

This week, Kittle faces a Seahawks defense that ranks 11th in aFPA to opposing tight ends. Kittle is a great start regardless of matchup, considering the offense pretty much runs through him. Expect another busy day for him, as we have him ranked as an elite fantasy option once again. Start him.
