The Kyle "Is not the" Pitts Thread

[StripesOfKC]

Well, he just opted out for the season, no bowl game for him

Smart, I don't think his draft capital could really rise much higher, he might be the highest drafted TE in years.

Higher than Hockenson at 8 in 2019?

Only a New England copycat (not the actual New England) would make that move (not to say Hockenson isn't great)

I think he goes mid teens

I think he will be the highest drafted in rookie drafts in a while

I think there is a good chance, although for some reason I thought Hock was like pick 11-12, either way I could see him going top 10 just like Hock, will be interesting to see.

Pitts going higher than 8 in the actual draft would be weird considering he's not known for his blocking. I guess Ebron wasn't either though.

Ebron is actually the player that came to mind when thinking of an athletic TE that wasn't known for blocking but went high anyway, I just didn't want to put Ebron's name anywhere near Pitts haha

Hard not to like this guy. He will be gone in most 1st rounds in 2021 IMO.

Where would u consider taking him for Team 1? SF and TE prem with flexible rosters

Just saw a mock with the Patriots taking him........

It's officially mock draft season when the TEs start getting mocked to NE!

[Sriracha]

Will depend on where these guys get drafted, but tentatively I'd take a swing after Lawrence, Fields, Wilson, Lance, Harris, Etienne, Javonte, Chase.

He won't make it that far (Pats currently 15th overall).

I believe he might have the best talent at a non-QB position of anyone in this entire class for a real NFL team. However, I don't think it's a stretch to think he falls that far. Which team in the top 15 needs him that either doesn't need a QB more or doesn't already have money/draft capital invested into a tight end? ATL/CAR need a QB more. DAL just took a swing at a skill player last year despite their league bottom defense. The only teams I could realistically see taking him are the Chargers, Vikings, and Pats.

Not sure the Patriots take a non blocking TE

I could see Jaguars at the Rams pick though--highest I could imagine would be Chargers if they win this week and pick in the 9-10 range

I find it hard to believe the Chargers use a 1st on a TE with Henry on the roster. They are happy with him and he has had a good year.

Yeah, except he's a free agent.

DAL and PHI seem realistic to me.
