Dennis Pitta Fantasy Stock Solidified: Ravens TE Listed Ahead Of Ed Dickson
Dennis Pitta is listed ahead of Ed Dickson on the Ravens’ latest depth chart. We break down the fantasy implications.
Fantasy Impact: Dickson, on the other hand, has just three catches for 45 yards this season, demarcating a clear separation between the two tight ends. Dickson is still a skilled pass catcher--he had 54 receptions last season--but Pitta has established himself as a potential go-to target. If he can keep up his fast start, he will be one of the elite tight end targets in the league this season. Even better: He can still be found on waivers in some leagues. Pitta is definitely worth stashing, if not starting, if you have the luxury.
