What you get from Pitts that you don't get from the "big 3" WRs is someone with a gigantic catch radius and who would be the best high pointing the ball. Think of Mike Evans in terms of how he plays the game. He's faster than Evans though. He's not quite as fast as Chase or Waddle (or possibly Smith), but he's way bigger. So what you don't quite get in the speed, you get in size and catch radius. Burrow should have no problem getting the ball to him.

His coach in an interview the other day referred to his blocking as a work in progress and that he got "throw around" when asked to block.  That is hardly what I call a solid blocker and that was in college.  

Again, still a very solid prospect, but I don't want him over Chase or Sewell.
