Dallas Goedert vs George Kittle: Who Should You Start?
Deciding between Dallas Goedert and George Kittle is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Philadelphia Eagles tight end put up 10.3 PPG in 2025 over 15 games; George Kittle of the San Francisco 49ers averaged 12.1 in 11. A 1.8-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 1.8 points favors George Kittle, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one tight end to the other.
Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Dallas Goedert had 60 catches for 591 yards; George Kittle posted 57 for 628. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.
One scheduling note: Dallas Goedert is off Week 5 and George Kittle Week 9. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in tight end for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
