Kyle Pitts holds a 39.1% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 9/6/2026
Stowers is 2.5 years younger and materially cheaper (SF 2,054) than Pitts, so the bet is on value insulation plus a role spike rather than paying for pedigree. In Philly, any path to consistent routes in a good offense can quickly turn into startable TE production, and his dual-eligibility/skillset gives him a chance to earn schemed touches if he pops. If he hits at all, the ROI is strong because you’re buying before market certainty, not after it.
Pitts still has the best combination of size/athleticism/profile at the position and is one of the few TEs with true difference-making ceiling outcomes. Even with uneven year-to-year usage, he’s already shown he can command downfield targets, and his ceiling is a weekly advantage that cheaper TEs rarely provide. The 28.7% price premium is paying for a realistic path to elite TE1 seasons rather than a fragile “needs multiple things to break right” bet.
Pitts for contenders—pay the premium for the higher probability of bankable weekly impact at a position where difference-makers are scarce.
Stowers for rebuilders if you’re maximizing value/liquidity and willing to miss, but Pitts if you’re explicitly building around a high-end TE core piece.
It’s only close if you think Stowers will earn meaningful routes/targets soon; otherwise the gap is justified by Pitts’ much higher ceiling and hit-rate.

Worth more?
Kyle Pitts is worth more and should remain so unless Stowers hits into a clear, consistent target-earning role.
Trade?
If you have Pitts, only pivot to Stowers by adding a meaningful plus (pick/young upside piece); if you have Stowers, you can add and upgrade to Pitts where managers are frustrated.
Superflex?
In SF, the relative TE value is slightly flatter versus QBs, but Pitts’ advantage-making ceiling still matters more than Stowers’ discount unless you’re reallocating to QB.
