Dolphins Agree to Terms with Jonnu Smith
1 month ago

The Miami Dolphins have reached an agreement with tight end Jonnu Smith.

Jonnu Smith is taking his talents down to South Beach. Smith agreed on a two-year deal with the Miami Dolphins worth $10 million. Smith’s arrival fills a huge void that the Dolphins have at tight end.

 

The talented former Falcons tight end looks to continue where he left off in 2023. While splitting snaps with Kyle Pitts last season, Smith was surprisingly a force to be reckoned with. The veteran posted career highs of 50 receptions for 582 yards on 70 targets, while bringing in three touchdowns.

 

Under Mike McDaniels, the tight end has been a forgotten position. With Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle garnering most of the targets and receptions, one can see why that is the case. Smith’s athleticism and size could make the tight end be in position for a huge year, especially in the Red Zone. There is not much competition standing Smith’s way, which makes him an excellent sleeper for this upcoming season. Whether you are in a dynasty or season long leagues, Smith is a name to remember when thinking of waiting to draft a tight end late in your fantasy drafts.

Jonnu Smith Released by Falcons
2 months ago

The Atlanta Falcons are moving forward without Jonnu Smith at the Tight End position, clearing the runway for Kyle Pitts.

Jonnu Smith is being released by the Atlanta Falcons. The veteran Tight End caught 50 passes for 532 yards and 3 touchdowns last season. If the Atlanta Falcons are going to get the most out of their 2021 4th overall pick in the NFL Draft in Kyle Pitts, they will need to have Kyle Pitts on the football field as much as possible.

 

While detractors took coach speak regarding Kyle Pitts run blocking ability as a sign of further misuse, savvy fantasy gamers know that the true path to relevance as a Tight End involves being on the field as much as possible. Allowing Kyle Pitts to be on the field regardless of down and distance will further keep defenses off balance.

 

With early career struggles, it is easy to forget that Kyle Pitts ran a 4.49 in the 40 yard dash and has a 99% Speed Score. Buy Kyle Pitts in Dynasty where you can, but also look over at UnderDog BestBall drafts where Pitts has an ADP of 92 in the middle of the 7th round.
