Kyle Pitts as a WR/TE Good for Carolina ?

[rippadonn]

Kyle Pitts is a generational talent. Everybody agrees. No shame at #8. No shame in winning.

Move up into the bottom of the first and get a QB. It'll probably be a good QB.

That and a great defense, we back!

CMC, DJ, Pitts?!?

I love Pitts. Would be thrilled to have him if FIelds/Lance are both off the board.

Him and Trask wrecked shop. Stats not favor.

Which one is it? They got chunks of yards and TDs, playing football. Often against elite talent like LSU with lesser complimentary talent.

Oh it's their OC, that must be it!

take Pitts at 8 and Trask at 39 who knows ??? Tho rather not waste an early draft pick on a qb if we don’t think he can be the one ..

You are aware that was college football, correct?

Kyle Pitts would be great for us but at 8 it’s more than a luxury pick. Trading down and still getting him around 15 would be great but almost impossible.

[LinvilleGorge]

I think Pitts is a helluva prospect. Probably the most dynamic TE prospect since Vernon Davis.

With that said... we need a fuging QB. He'd be a waste if we don't address that. #8 needs to be about a QB. Either drafting one or trading for assets to get a QB next year.

The only time a WR (basically what Pitts is projected to play) in the top 10 is if they have a Julio Jones/Calvin Johnson trajectory. Otherwise you can find those guys in rounds 2-4.
 

Top 10 picks should be: QB; get to the QB; protect the QB. 

Exactly.  I love it when people start their man crush on Pitts by saying "think of him as a WR" to try to get over the TE position value constraints.  Well, the only damn reason Pitts is rated so high is because he is so unique as a pass catcher at the TE position.  As a WR he's not all that unique...not one of the top 3 WRs...and possibly not even a 1st round pick.

This is a mismatch league .. he is a walking mismatch ! Carolina might not be it but if he drops past 10 .. future 1st #39 and #74 for him hell throw in Ian Thomas 

 

hopefully lance or Fields drops to us at 8

i don't think people fully understand how much of a problem it would be to coach your linebackers to cover both CMC and a guy like this. It would be comical to see it attempted. when people talk about quarterback and its importance, that's valid. but at what position can we most improve our WAR, for lack of a better football stat, should be the focus. make our team so good that we set up whoever our next quarterback is for success before he even arrives. we had less than ideal QB play last season, but there are available arms that could probably give us neutral 20-25th in the league type performance with as many weapons as we'd have. it could potentially even be teddy, as much as that idea sucks. 

they may have tipped their hand a little by not making a more concerted effort after kyle rudolph if we're looking at stop gap guys to transition that can still provide value. i think he's an absolute consideration when you look around the league at the guys who are matchup nightmares at that position and what they are able to do for you. gronk took a year off and the league still didn't have an answer for it. if you think this kid is george kittle, you better take him. i try to look at it like what addition would the league be most disappointed by for us, and a viable tight end would do SO MUCH in terms of having a large catch radius target with all our smaller WR options. we don't have that 3rd and short guy who can box out and fall forward and it hurt our drives last season especially in the red zone. we fix that we add some real value and simultaneously make this QB opening a sincere landing spot the way the Bucs were built to prepare for Brady inadvertently before he even got there. the build it and he will come strategy. 

No what’s comical it’s thinking Teddy can do anything with Pitts or our wrs.

[Growl]

could you imagine what this team would like if the typical huddler made decisions 

wasted picks on every 'cant miss' talent at every peripheral position on the field and double digit 5th round picks and double digit losses every season after we move down constantly
