You completely disregarded my point about Kelce lining up outside less than 5% of the time. So, tell me where you would line up Pitts and let me know if you believe he is as good in that role as Chase, Waddle, or Smith.
Florida lined him 3 feet from the tackle ala Jimmy Graham in his prime in NO. Their QB Trask mentioned that it led to great pre-play reads. Cover with a safety and the defense is likely zone. Cover him with a CB is highly likely man (at least to that side of the field). Not many risked LB ‘s covering him). Defenses are far more used to Chase-style WR’s (and there are quite a few) than TE’s with Pitts skill set.
