I could be wrong, but I don't see the Bengals taking Pitts.
Even if we traded down out of the 5 spot, and he was magically still there further down I still could see us passing on him. Why? Because this team is stupid and they're perfectly content with Uzomah and Sample.
There's probably people in that building (Katie, Troy, Duke, and Zac) that would liken a TE acquistion as an admission of failure. They don't want to admit they gave Uzomah too much money or that they whiffed on Sample. So they're not even going to consider bettering the position. (Side note: May be the same situation with Bobby Hart. Troy got awful defensive about that deal. Probably don't want to improve there either because their pride would take a hit)
I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think they're going to do a damn thing at TE. That's why Hopson has mentioned numerous times that "with Uzomah coming back and Sample...". Not to mention, I'm pretty sure the Bengals themselves names Drew Sample as their "breakout player" in an article on the front page.
