Dallas Goedert vs Kyle Pitts: Who Should You Start?
This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Dallas Goedert finished the 2025 season at 10.3 PPG over 15 games with the Philadelphia Eagles, while Kyle Pitts clocked in at 9.8 across 17 appearances for the Atlanta Falcons. A 0.5-point gap means any given week could go either way.
With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.
Kyle Pitts is the volume tight end in this matchup with 88 receptions for 928 yards, while Dallas Goedert profiles as a more touchdown-dependent spike play (11 scores on 60 catches). In weeks where Dallas Goedert finds the end zone he out-scores Kyle Pitts, but the floor gap is real.
One scheduling note: Dallas Goedert is off Week 5 and Kyle Pitts Week 12. 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.
