Draft note

by John Paulsen

Flashback to the 2021 season: Kyle Pitts is a rookie and has a competent quarterback (Matt Ryan) and offensive coordinator (Dave Ragone) willing to feature him. He catches 68-of-110 targets for 1,026 yards and one score. (He should have caught 4.1 touchdowns, according to 4for4’s expected touchdowns per our data scientist Kevin Zatloukal.) That year, he finished as the TE5 and had the third-best fantasy season by a rookie tight end since the 2000 season. He posted the fourth-highest yards per route run at his position. The last two seasons have been major disappointments, but Pitts has been dealing with subpar quarterback play and a play-caller in Arthur Smith who often refused to feature his best players. Now he has Kirk Cousins throwing the ball and Zac Robinson (of Sean McVay’s coaching tree) calling the plays. I think he has a great chance to see 100+ targets and pick up where he left off as a rookie.

ATL TE Kyle Pitts - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 @ Philadelphia Eagles
There's not a lot to be negative about in reference to Kyle Pitts in 2024, even if fantasy drafters are none-too-excited about his output these last two seasons. Cousins has a history of targeting the position heavily, the new Falcons OC is all but guaranteed to instill a more robust passing attack than the previous regime, and Pitts profiles as the No. 2 receiving option on an offense that should look much better than in 2022-23. Though his Week 1 stat line was lacking, he did find the end zone, and is a very serious threat to do that in most weeks.
