I think he's playing with the shoulder injury still. Dude is pretty tough. No way that shoulder is 100%

CJ to Kittle

He WILL be a Pro Bowler this year.

Gronk, Kelce, and Cook are all in the AFC. Two TEs from the NFC will get selected and show me 2 TEs in the NFC more qualified THIS YEAR than Kittle (not just a name like Graham). Ertz is the only one that could be argued ahead of Kittle. No one else is even close in terms of production and I don't see his production dropping off with Beathard who seems to LOVE going to Kittle.

Best TE in the NFL according to PFF.
FWIW, PFF ranks him #1 TE. 11 points higher than Kelce. 14 higher than Gronk. Better blocker than either of those two.

The only receiving TE in the league that is close to him if OJ Howard.

I wanna like Kittle. I do like him. I just want more consistency with the drops. He can be the best TE in the NFL if he catches.

Where are all the Lynch haters now? Kittle was a 5th round pick

I'm not against nor pro Lynch. But shouldn't we let this play out before proclaiming victory? Colbert being a recent example. Witherspoon as well. Kittle's health is the major wildcard here.

He's outplayed expectations of 5th round picks, no need to think about that.

Yes. But picking Kittle is supposed to keep Lynch haters away? He's given fans plenty of other draft ammo to hate.
Kittle runs a 4.5 40 and is the best blocking TE in the NFL, what more could you want. Iowa is know for good TE's, and Noah Fant is considered the next great one. He reminds me of Vernon Davis. They have another kid, TJ Hockenson who is a sophomore and I think is going to be better then Kittle. He is already a good blocker, catches everything in site and has very good speed.

Not surprising in the least. See first page or pages. Many of us thought Kittle would be excellent for KS.
I still can't believe Kittle pancaked Justin Houston 1vs1 lol.
This guy just keeps getting better and better...only four games into Year 2. Still needs to work on his consistency as he'll have the drops every now and then. But I expect that to pretty much go away and he'll thrive just that much more in this scheme.
Kittle is the best player on the team (imo)
We need to use him even more. He's legit
