Who Should I Start? Dallas Goedert or Kyle Pitts Sr.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (groin) will practice in a limited capacity on Tuesday due to a groin injury, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Goedert is a new addition to the team's injury report. Missed time has been a consistent issue for Goedert throughout his career, as he's missed at least three games in four out of his last five seasons. The 30-year-old is an efficient receiving tight end who typically does not see many targets in the Eagles' run-heavy offense. However, Goedert could be a great value early in the season if current injuries to A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (groin) keep the Eagles' top two wide receivers sidelined for a significant stretch.

Former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Hugh Douglas was a guest on the Pat McAfee Show on Monday, and he is bullish on the 2025 Falcons offense. He boldly predicted fireworks, and he believes second-year quarterback Michael Penix Jr. is the key to unlocking fifth-year tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. Pitts exploded onto the scene with a 1,000 yard rookie campaign after being the highest drafted tight end in NFL history, but he has yet to top 55 receptions or 700 yards in any of his three seasons since, and his four touchdowns in 2024 were a career high. His raw talent and intriguing physical profile will keep him on many a draft radar, despite the scars of the past. His current Yahoo Fantasy ADP of TE17 is the lowest of his career, and if his connection with Penix can match what he had with Matt Ryan in 2021, he may finally reward drafters willing to take another shot on him.
