Kittle TE6 value at 90s overall; target November-December production.
Kittle is recovering from a torn Achilles and appears to be on the right timeline for return; modern Achilles injuries are no longer career-enders and allow return around 8-9 months post-injury. Expected to be active by week two (not week one due to Australia travel and recovery concerns), but unlikely to reach 100% until mid-season/Thanksgiving timeframe. First three to four games back should be expected to produce boom-bust numbers. Kittle has risen in ADP from early hundreds to back end of 90s overall and is ranked tight end six by fantasy points per game; he's been dinged with approximately 4.5 games removed from his projection due to the Achilles injury and expected week one absence. The source views him as a fine pick in the 90-100 overall range (tight end 9-10 ADP) if drafted with the understanding that his value comes from November-December production, not September-October. Strategy: pair with late-round tight ends like Goedert or Andrews for early-season production while waiting for Kittle to reach full health.

He's now going in the back end of the 90s overall...Kittle is somebody I've definitely warmed to...you're drafting him firmly with hey, I'm making money off Kittle being a top five, top six fantasy tight end in November and December.
