BALLER MOVE: Target ~105
CURRENT ADP: ~115
ANALYSIS: ADP: With Evan Engram having such a good rookie season, another rookie tight end, George Kittle of the San Francisco 49ers, kind of got forgotten. However, Kittle himself had quite a first year, with 43 catches for 515 yards and two touchdowns. He did this while playing less than 60% of the team’s snaps too.
Now entering his sophomore year, and with a big upgrade at quarterback, Kittle should be on the field plenty and has a chance to vastly improve on last year’s numbers. He did hurt his shoulder in the first preseason game, but all reports are he will be good to go for week one.
This bump in value for Kittle also comes from the addition of Jimmy Garoppolo as the quarterback for San Francisco. On an offense that should see a big bump in 2017, Kittle is one of the best values at the position.
