Pitts' $36M guaranteed at signing is highest among TE comps despite $17.67M APY.

Kyle Pitts ranks fourth in APY among top tight ends at $17.67M but has received the most guaranteed money at signing ($36M) on his deal. Pitts is almost exactly one year younger than Kincaid and has posted 1.63 yards per route run across 79 games with 84 career catches and 28 games missed due to injury. Buffalo Rumblings uses Pitts as a comp to illustrate why guaranteed-at-signing matters more than APY in contract negotiations.
