Pitts in, Parsons out

Hard pass on Parsons. And I felt that way even before all these character concerns started coming out.

Even if both Pitts and Parsons reach their full potential who would you rather have; a Travis Kelce type weapon at TE? Or whoever the best stack LB in the league currently is? It probably says a lot that I’m not even sure off the top of my head who that is right now.

We have Kelce vs Gronk in this Super Bowl, and last year we had Kelce vs Kittle. An elite TE is just an absolute matchup nightmare in today’s NFL.

Bobby Wagner for the Seahawks

1st Team All-Pro each of the last 5 years, was 2nd team the year before that, and 1st team the year before that.

I'd take a Bobby Wagner in a heartbeat (who wouldn't take a 1st ballot HoFer?) if you can guarantee him, but I don't think he has as much impact on the game as Kelce does now, or Gronk did in the past. I also don't think Parson is Wagner. Neither performance nor character.

I still think I am in on Chase over Pitts (if Sewell isn't there), though. Look what Diggs did for Allen by giving him a true #1. Also look what Jefferson did for the Vikings as a rookie, and then realize that Chase was significantly better. 

Nearly 1,800 yards, over 21 yards per catch, 20 TDs. If they can't have the generational OT talent in Sewell, they should take the absurd WR talent that also already has chemistry with our QB. They're going to have to double him, and that means more 1-on-1 coverage for Boyd and Higgins, 1 less guy in the box for Mixon, or 1 less blitzer for our OL to pick up.
