1) Game changing WRs seem to come along more often than game-changing TEs.
2) If Pitts plays a majority of his snaps at TE, the TE franchise tag is cheaper than the WR tag ($9.6 mill TE vs $16 mill WR this year).
3) The Bengals have better talent at WR than at TE right now.
If the Bengals have the vision of keeping a guy longer, always nice to have a cheaper tag.
But as psych said, we'd have to trust Taylor would know how to utilize Pitts properly, which I don't know if I do.
Pitts is the perfect weapon to use as both a WR and TE, as he can be the third WR in 3-WR sets, but also can be very useful in 2-TE sets as the 2nd TE. Heck, you could go crazy and put him, Uzomah, and Sample out there, with Pitts outside opposite of Higgins and then Uzomah and Sample inline.
If Taylor has no.idea how on how to use a talent like
KYLE PITTS then he really should not be coaching
There is this narrative that ZT is married to the McVay
System. If he is then really lacks the knowledge
To create his own identity on offense
