If your favorite NFL team is in the market for a dynamic tight end prospect who creates serious matchup problems for opposing defenses, Florida’s Kyle Pitts is the man for the job.
With his rare combination of size and athleticism, Pitts was one of the most dominant pass-catchers in all of college football this season. He was at his best in contested-catch situations, where his success made him the best at his position over the past six years (via Pro Football Focus).
Though it’s not often we see a tight end prospect worthy of top-5 consideration, Pitts has the skill set to be worthy of that conversation in the 2021 NFL draft.
