Kyle Pitts fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 6 (2024). Should you start or sit Kyle Pitts for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in All Formats
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1
ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts is coming off his best game of the season, catching seven passes for 88 yards. He also saw a season-high eight targets in last week's win. Now, Pitts gets a great matchup against a Panthers secondary that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season.
Carolina has given up at least four catches to tight ends in each of the first five games. Last week, Cole Kmet and Gerald Everett combined for five catches and 79 yards. As a result, Pitts will come into Week 6 as a solid TE1 option in most leagues.
Aside from last week's TE6 finish, Pitts has been a bit disappointing in fantasy this year. He has just a 13.8% target share and ranks 26th in yards per route run (1.5) among tight ends in 2024. However, the matchup against Carolina this week is great, making the Falcons playmaker a strong start in most formats.
BALLER MOVE: Start in 14-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4 ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is about to get a lot more targets, according to Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. Bateman looked solid in training camp, though then again, so do players like WR Elijah Moore, and they end up not doing much in real games. […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12 + Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: Many fantasy managers, myself included (regrettably), expected new Los Angeles Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel to get wide receiver Quentin Johnston more involved on plays where he could utilize his skill set -- running after the catch -- better. That didn't happen in Week […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Vele's performance in Week 1 was shocking. In the absence of WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring), he served as the team's WR2, and caught seven of his nine targets for 69 yards and a touchdown, finishing with 19.9 PPR fantasy points. He played 91 percent […]
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. was expected to play an ancillary role with his team when he was signed in the offseason. Then 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) had surgery to correct his PCL issues and was ruled out for the […]
Baller Move: Bench in standard leagues, mid-end FLEX in deeper leagues Positional Value: WR4 Analysis: One of the big mysteries in fantasy football this offseason was how the Miami Dolphins’ offense would look in 2026. Miami signed quarterback Malik Willis to a big contract in free agency, but his pass-catching group was filled with unproven […]
