Although Kyle Pitts Sr. grabbed the TE2 post last year after a fast finish, the market isn't expecting a repeat. He's currently the TE8 in Yahoo drafts, landing in the mid-70s overall.

Many managers have been burned by Pitts in the past, which might explain the ADP trend. However, Pitts is merely entering his age-26 season, the Falcons still employ a narrow target tree, and new head coach Kevin Stefanski is known to feature tight ends in his scheming. At his current draft price, he's a proactive draft target.
