Before I get killed for saying this, I'm not saying Kittle is the second coming of DC, but I can't help but make the comparison for two reasons.
1 - We used to call Dallas 'Crazy Leg's because of the way he cut at speed with sharp changes of direction. Kittle has a lot of that in him. Very un-TE like in that regard.
2 Kittle has great hands. Neither are killer blockers. Kittle has been a real revelation this year. I'm glad we have him back. He may not be an All-American like DC, but I think with HKC gone he will get enough balls his way to be All-B14 if he keeps improving.
Just my $0.02.
