^^^ No hate on Falcons draft pick Pitts, however I see him as Vernon Davis 2.0. Has all the measurables, physical traits & tools you can ask for but will it translate at the next level ? … risky but we shall see. Superstardom is no guarantee.

For what it's worth, Kittle and Kelce' were mid rounders and arguably the best in the league at TE.

But now teams are looking for that type of TE and with the increased demand they're likely going to be drafted earlier and earlier. That said, you can still find gems later mixed in amongst the coal heap.

By the way, Kelce was taken with the 63rd overall pick of the draft, the first pick of the 3rd round. There were only 30 2nd round picks in 2013. That really doesn't qualify as a midround pick.

And Tom Brady was a 6th round pick, amazing that acorns you can find throughout the draft...
