George Kittle vs Harold Fannin
Harold Fannin holds a 29.9% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 9/17/2026
THE CASE FOR KITTLE
Kittle is still a difference-maker at TE because his per-route efficiency and TD ceiling can swing weeks even when volume is modest. In a strong 49ers offense, he’s attached to high scoring environments and can post elite spike games that win playoff matchups. If you’re chasing a title, the points-per-start advantage over most TE options can outweigh the age and liquidity risk.
THE CASE FOR FANNIN
Fannin’s value is driven by age insulation and a longer runway, which matters most at TE where breakouts can take time but pay off for years. At 22, any meaningful NFL production quickly compounds into multiple seasons of startability and rising market value, giving you both ceiling and trade flexibility. The current pricing gap implies the market expects him to become a usable starter; if he hits, you get a multi-year TE solution at a discount to established elites.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Lean Kittle if you’re a real top-3 contender and need weekly TE edge now; otherwise take the value side with Fannin.
Take Fannin—Kittle’s age curve and short window don’t match a rebuild timeline.
In a close call, side with Fannin at a 36.7% discount unless Kittle’s immediate points clearly start for you in the playoffs.
