How does Jeremiyah Love's draft position affect his fantasy value?

They're hot.

How do contract extensions impact fantasy football strategies?

Andy Holloway 2:43
Well, well, well. The Falcons have signed tight end Kyle Pitts to a three-year, $54 million extension that includes $36 million in guaranteed money, I mean, at his age, he'll see all of that money, I think.
Kyle Bukauskas 3:01
Yes.
Andy Holloway 3:02
So that's a $54 million commitment. It puts him up there with the highest paid tight ends in per year average, right behind Kittle and McBride, ahead of what likely got this offseason, ahead of what Andrews re-signed for. I mean... If you had to summarize the Kyle Pitts story so far in his career, I don't know what it is.
Mike Wright 3:28
I think the summary of Kyle Pitts' story is massive disappointment quality player. He is actually a quality player for this team. Obviously, they're giving him a $54 million extension because they need him. They need another receiving option, and he is not a bad player. For fantasy, especially at this point, because he was supposed to be one of the generational... He was supposed to be what Brock Bowers actually turned out to be, and it doesn't seem like he'll ever do that, but he's cool.
Andy Holloway 3:56
And yet he had an isolated game where he broke every record.
Mike Wright 4:00
Yes.
Andy Holloway 4:00
So those are almost worse for us because it shows... Yeah, not every tight end could go out and do that.
Mike Wright 4:07
No, I mean, no tight end has ever done that. He had the highest fantasy point total of any single game in the history of the NFL.
Now, we like following trends because, you know, finding fantasy football players, that's how you got to do it. Oh, my gosh. Jason, I just went and looked at Kyle Pitts' touchdowns.
Kyle Bukauskas 4:25
Per year. Per year. Oh, all right.
Is it trending? Go ahead, Mike. Year one, remember that we had the disappointing. It was only one touchdown.
Andy Holloway 4:34
It was actually a great year.
Yeah, he had 1,000 yards. Year two, he had two. Okay. Year three, he had three. Wow. Hold on. Okay. Year four. Can I guess? Are you sure? Do you know what the trend is? Four touchdowns. Yeah. You got it. All right. Year five.
Andy Holloway 4:51
five wow like how is this possible so he's just getting better when he turns 30 he'll have a 10 touchdown season so what you're saying i mean if you look at what he did last year possible he was the lowest yards per catch by a lot in his career but his yardage was back up at 928 i mean do people realize that he had 88 receptions
