NegativeProjectionJul 24, 2026
Pitts leads the yards-per-route ranking at approximately 1.7 yards per route, placing him at the top of a tier that includes Bowers, Juwan Johnson, Harold Fannin, Aranda Gadsden, and Tyler Warren—all clustered between 1.6 and 1.7 yards per route. The source uses this metric to contextualize Gadsden's per-route efficiency relative to other elite tight ends.NegativeValueJul 24, 2026
Pitts is ranked as the tight end seven (though the speaker notes he has him above Sam Laporta). He was the tight end two last year and can be acquired at the tight end eight ADP, making him a value. He jumped from 74 targets in 2024 to 118 targets in 2025. If Tua gets the starting job, it's a huge bump for Pitts, as Tua has previously propped up guys like Johnnie Smith to the tight end four in 2024. Last year, Pitts had 88 catches, 928 yards (second only to Trey McBride), and five touchdowns. The speaker loves talking up Pitts as one of the few guys in this range with high upside potential. However, the concern is that Pitts has not been consistent, especially when Drake London is healthy.PositiveUsageJul 23, 2026
Kyle Pitts is a key weapon in the Falcons offense under Kevin Stefanski's system. Penix hyper-targets Pitts, and Stefanski's play-action and under-center schemes should create more opportunities for the tight end. Pitts is positioned to benefit from the offensive coordinator change.NegativeProjectionJul 18, 2026
Major concern about quarterback room without Kirk Cousins; most of his production came with Drake London hurt or sidelined, and the quarterback hurdle with Michael Penix and Tua is significant.PositiveProjectionJul 18, 2026

Kyle Pitts is set up well for a big year with Kevin Coger back as position coach, a great head coach-offensive coordinator combination for tight ends, and an offense that will value and appreciate him.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
Kyle Pitts' production fluctuates based on offensive scheme and matchups rather than talent changes; sometimes he's the top read but not open, or defenses focus on him leaving better matchups elsewhere.PositiveProjectionJul 16, 2026
After a rough three-game stretch around week 11-12 where he dropped passes and had minimal production, Kyle Pitts reached out to his coach asking how to fix it, leading to a turnaround that became the most impressive stretch of his professional career.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
