If you want a true Bates center field FS replacement, I believe Dax Hill is more suited for that than Pitre.
Hill is faster and twitchier than Pitre.
Hill - 4.38 40, 6.57 3-cone, 4.06 shuttle
Pitre - DNR 40, 6.74 3-cone, 4.18 shuttle

With that said, I'm not ok with spending a 1st rounder this year just to take over for 2023.
Just draft a safety next year if/when Bates isn't on the team.
Get a 1st rounder who could contribute more in 2022.

The prospects are fairly close so we can agree to disagree. I'll take the range and you the tackling.

Jalen Pitre played cover 2, overhang, and nickle. I wouldnt put him back in single high. The other Baylor safety took most of the single high responsibilities JT Woods.

Put it like this Pitre is more like a Tyrann Mathieu than a Jessie Bates.

Ok

Didn't you trade Tyler Boyd in a mock?

Lewis Cline is the other one that would fit and he might be there at #63... might.

Synric didn't but I did just as a simulation.

What's the point of bringing that up in a topic about safety replacements for Bates?

Is it to try to discredit someone's opinion?

No reason. We'll get together later I'm going to Five Guys for a burger & fries. No to a Boyd trade we need a speedy #4

Yep I have being drafted by KC for that very reason.
