| 0:00.0 | What's up guys? It's Theo with another stay hot shot here today to talk about the |
| 0:09.6 | tight end Kyle Pitts. Now, Kyle Pitts is one of my favorite players in the league right now. He |
| 0:14.9 | was my number one prospect on my big board for this year's draft. And I want to talk about a |
| 0:19.6 | couple of things that make him so good and what we can expect from his rookie season. Well, no, it's gonna be a scary season. The next great NFL tight end is being hailed as perhaps the best prospect ever. I love you, Kyle Pitts. I want a Kyle Pitts jersey. I want a fat head of Kyle. And this guy is a matchup nightmare. |
| 0:39.4 | Now, I watched a bunch of Florida film for this draft cycle because of Kyle Trask, |
| 0:44.0 | Cadarius Tony, some of their offensive linemen, and Kyle Pitts himself. And whenever I was watching |
| 0:49.0 | Florida or any team really playing Florida, like Jamon Davis playing the Florida game for Kentucky's defense. |
| 0:55.4 | Anytime I was watching Florida in any capacity, it was hard not to get distracted by Kyle |
| 0:59.7 | Pitts making some spectacular catch, whether that be mossing Patrick Sertan and two other |
| 1:04.8 | Alabama defenders in the end zone, whether that be breaking off long yards after catch runs |
| 1:10.5 | or mossing people like he did in the |
| 1:12.4 | old miss game just everywhere on the film there are highlight plays that no one else in this |
| 1:18.6 | tight end class or really any other tight end class is making i think he was well worth the fourth |
| 1:23.2 | overall pick and although there were some criticisms about his blocking, I don't even think he's |
| 1:28.9 | all that bad there either. He's just merely okay at it, although maybe in the NFL that will |
| 1:34.8 | downgrade a little bit to bad. But you don't draft a player fourth overall to be a blocking |
| 1:40.1 | tight end. You draft him to be a spectacular receiving threat, a centerpiece in the offense. |
| 1:46.1 | And I really do believe that's what Kyle Pitts can be. That being said, the last tight end to have |
| 1:51.0 | over a thousand yards in their rookie season was Mike Ditka in 1961. It's a really hard position |
| 1:57.0 | to learn and adjust to the NFL level. You have to be a tackle with your blocking and a |
| 2:03.5 | wide receiver with your receiving. It's one of the hardest jobs to do in the NFL. And maybe some of |
| 2:10.4 | the hype on Kyle Pitts is a little bit too high just because although he's such a generational |
