Kyle Pitts is AJ Green as a tight end.

1) Undervalues his abilities
2) Thinks Bengals have good TEs now or optimism they'll get better
3) Don't think the Bengals will be able to incorporate TE well enough into the passing game

I personally would like us to take either the Oregon T or the Alabama Heisman WR at 5. If both those guys are gone (And especially if a sought after QB falls to 5) then I am game to trade down and take a TE. Just not at 5 with who possibly may be available.

If they're not going to get an OL with the 5th overall, I don't see how Chase isn't the pick. No matter how great of a mismatch Pitts is, he's never going to put up ~1800/20.

Side note...

I understand sitting out the COVID season entirely, but something rubs me the wrong way about Pitts playing part of the season. He puts up a big game against Alabama, and then quits before the Bowl Game, leaving his QB out to dry. He played long enough to get his before booking it, letting Trask flounder for 0 TD/3 INT on national TV.

It's not a huge deal, and it isn't the reasoning for my opinion on who to take, but it does rub me the wrong way a bit.

Oof that's a bit of a red flag for me honestly. I want fiery competitors all over the field. Not talented potential prima donnas.
