player. Pick Analysis. TE. Kyle Pitts. 87. Scouting Report. Florida. 8
After giving up three future picks including a second-rounder for Sam Darnold likely won’t be taking a quarterback especially in this scenario with quarterbacks going in the first four selections.
Kyle Pitts is arguably the best prospect in the entire draft class, so getting him at eighth overall would be a steal.
At 6-foot-6, 245 pounds with a massive wingspan and a 4.44 40 yard dash will come into the league as arguably the league’s most physically gifted tight end. The ceiling for him is arguably higher than any other prospect in the class.
Not only does he have all the physical traits needed to succeed, but also the production at Florida. In just eight games, he managed to record 43 catches for 770 yards and 12 touchdowns.
