Summary

Hayden Winks and Thor Nystrom join Matt Stroup to break down the top tight end prospects in the 2021 NFL Draft, in a class of players headlined in a serious way by Kyle Pitts. We discuss all the superlatives around the Florida star, how he compares to current star tight ends including Travis Kelce and George Kittle, and how quickly he can become an elite fantasy and real life pass-catching option in the NFL. Plus, the draft needs in the NFC North, with the Ravens needing receiving help for Lamar Jackson, and the Bengals under pressure to find a way to better protect Joe Burrow.
