Fantasy Impact: It was rumored that the Falcons were going to tag him, and those rumors turned out to be true. HC Kevin Stefanski heavily utilized tight ends while in Cleveland, and it's likely Pitts will operate in a David Njoku-like fashion, albeit Pitts is more of an oversized receiver. His fantasy value is still a little murky given the QB situation in Atlanta.

The Atlanta Falcons are expected to cut veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins ahead of the new league year, which starts in mid-March. (Source: Adam Schefter, ESPN)

Fantasy Impact: Cousins recently restructured his contract and reportedly is considering a career in television. However, he is not yet set on retiring and could continue his NFL career if an opportunity presented itself. Cousins has been open about his desire to return to a starting role.
