If you’ve watched Kyle Pitts play as much as I have you wouldn’t ask that question. Zac Taylor’s offense be damned, this guy is one of the best TEs to ever enter the draft. I wouldn’t complain too much about Surtain but you take the best player available and Pitts is a difference maker that would make Burrow smile.

Meh, enough with the fanboy talk.  He's a little light for TE in the pros, and not fast enough to convert to WR.  If we were a team committed to a 2TE base offensive set, then maybe he would be worth taking with that high of a pick.

The Bengals football team doesn't NEED skill position players anywhere close to matching the need they have for fundamental blocking and tackling players.  In my view the hierarchy of needs this year is OL, DL, and CB.  Using a top 5 pick on a skill position player would be wasteful, luxury spending, in my opinion.
