Sewell I think has turned out to be #3 on this list, but shows a lot of promise with Detroit.
Pitts is putting up great numbers with Atlanta (best pace in NFL history)

Then of course there is Chase that is doing the same as a WR.
That a pretty impressive trio.
The top 3 QBs are a "Jury is still out" IMHO.
What does everyone think? Did we get the right guy or would you rather have Pitts (I know he went 4th) or Sewell?
I'm sorry, man, but Pitts has 31 receptions for 471 yards and 1 TD. Ja'Marr has 35 receptions and 754 Yards and 6 TDs. They aren't quite the same thing, unless you were speaking only to record pace for their perspective positions groups.
Not attacking you here, or saying you said this about Pitts, but all I heard was how he wasn't a TE, he was a massive receiver. That was said in response to his lacking skills as a blocker. I also heard that he was "undefendable". Well, Atlanta has seen such defensive stalwarts as Miami, Philly, the Giants, and the Jets.
I am sure Pitts will be a great NFL player, but no one is on top of the league like Chase right now. Amazingly, he is barely being targeted. If he was targeted like Devonta Adams? Good Lord.
So, in summary, WE GOT THE RIGHT GUY.
