Brenton Strange vs Kyle Pitts
Kyle Pitts holds a 30.2% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 10/2/2026
THE CASE FOR STRANGE
Strange is the cheaper path to near-term TE usefulness in an offense that can sustain efficient targets, and his price doesn’t require elite upside to pay off. If Jacksonville consolidates routes/targets at TE, he can settle into a steady TE2/spot-start profile with occasional spike weeks. The opportunity cost is low enough that any clear top-two target-earning signal would create quick value insulation.
THE CASE FOR PITTS
Pitts still carries rare, difference-making ceiling at the position: elite athletic profile, proven ability to command downfield targets, and the kind of archetype that can actually separate in weekly edge. Even with uneven usage/efficiency to date, he’s the one who can realistically return top-3 TE seasons—something Strange is extremely unlikely to do. In dynasty, paying for that ceiling is often correct because true weekly-advantage TEs are scarce and hold value better than mid-tier starters.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
If you’re contending, take Pitts unless you’re truly TE-proof and need the extra value elsewhere—his ceiling is a better bet to swing weeks than Strange’s floor.
If rebuilding, Pitts is the clear hold/buy: same age band, far better long-term ceiling, and stronger liquidity in trade markets.
At a 41.5% price gap, Pitts is still the preferred asset, but Strange is the rational buy only if you’re explicitly prioritizing cost efficiency over positional upside.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
Worth more?
Pitts is worth more in both production-upside and resale terms; Strange only wins on cost per probable point.
Trade?
I’d trade Strange + a meaningful sweetener for Pitts, but I wouldn’t move Pitts for Strange unless the add is a legit 1st/strong young starter value.
Superflex?
Superflex depresses non-elite TE values, but it actually strengthens the case for paying up only for ceiling—so Pitts over Strange.
