The Falcons don't have a lot of firepower at wide receiver beyond Drake London, so Kyle Pitts could very well be Atlanta's No. 2 target-earner this season. Pitts tried to dispel his reputation of being a perennial fantasy tease with a strong 2025 performance. The former No. 4 overall draft pick had 88 catches for 928 yards and five touchdowns, finishing as the TE2 in half-PPR fantasy scoring.

Pitts' TE2 finish and No. 2 target role in Atlanta support top-eight TE value.

Pitts could be Atlanta's No. 2 target-earner this season given the Falcons lack firepower at wide receiver beyond Drake London. He posted a strong 2025 performance with 88 catches for 928 yards and five touchdowns, finishing as the TE2 in half-PPR scoring—his best season since his 1,026-yard rookie campaign in 2021. Historical precedent suggests upside: Mike Gesicki and Jonnu Smith had the best fantasy seasons of their careers with Tua Tagovailoa as their primary quarterback, and Tagovailoa is part of the Falcons' QB duo alongside Michael Penix Jr. If you miss out on Bowers and Loveland, grab Pitts before the sharp drop-off at the tight end position beyond the top eight.
