I agree and would take Sewell over Pitts if he's there -- but it's looking more and more like he won't be. I'd probably also take Chase over Pitts in a vacuum, but signing someone like Hilton would give us the ability to take Pitts if we like him better. And Pitts is far and away better regarded than the next best TEs in this class, who are generally considered to be fringe-2nd or 3rd round guys with question marks (Freiermuth, Jordan, Long, Tremble, etc.)
What I don't want is to be forced to overdraft a position of need if no one wants to trade, e.g., Slater or Darrisaw at 5 if Sewell is gone because we need an OT. We've avoided that scenario by signing Reiff. Now I hope we can pick up a FA WR so we don't have to reach for Waddle if Chase and Smith are gone.
