After Years of Waiting, is the Kyle Pitts Sr. Breakout Finally Here?

Monday, June 15, 5:38 AM

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. finished as 2025's TE2, and while much of the heavy lifting was done in an 11-catch, three-touchdown outing that went down as one of the most productive tight end games in NFL history, there is optimism that his role in Kevin Stefanski's tight end-friendly offense could help to deliver more consistent week-winning performances. His career year came while running his most routes since entering the NFL, and with Stefanski and offensive coordinator Tommy Rees deploying the league's highest rate of 12-personnel usage in their final season in Cleveland, Pitts should benefit from some of the same looks that allowed Harold Fannin Jr. to reach triple-digit targets as a rookie. Entering his sixth season, Pitts is remarkably still just 25 years old, and with some fantasy managers long over waiting for the true breakout that has been predicted since 2021, he has become a potential bargain at RotoBaller's dynasty TE8.

Should Dynasty Managers Be Looking to Sell High on Jake Ferguson?

Thursday, June 11, 9:00 AM

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson took on a high-volume role in his team's offense in 2026, finishing the year with 82 catches for 600 yards and eight touchdowns on 102 targets across 17 games. However, a significant chunk of Ferguson's production came in the four games where star Cowboys wideout CeeDee Lamb was either sidelined or forced to exit early due to injury. Across the 13 games where Ferguson shared the field with Lamb, he averaged 5.3 targets and four receptions per game. The 27-year-old needs a high volume of targets to be productive for fantasy managers, as he's averaged under six yards per target in each of the last two seasons. Ferguson's 2026 spike in red zone production may not be sustainable either, as he failed to record a single touchdown grab across 14 games in 2024. With the Cowboys' star wide receiver duo of Lamb and George Pickens likely to demand a significant chunk of the team's targets in 2026, dynasty managers may want to explore selling high on Ferguson.
