Add in the fact he’s 6’6″ and weighs around 245 pounds and you’re going to have a very tough time defending him one-on-one.

Obviously, anyone who watched Pitts play at Florida knows damn well what he’s capable of on a football field.
The man is a freak of nature. He’s a legit problem for defenses to scheme around and cover. He’s the size of a tight end but runs like an elite receiver.
4.44u ????

While Pitts won’t go first or second overall, he’s 100% going to be one of the first guys off of the board.
That much I can promise you beyond any shadow of a doubt. Guys like him come along once every few years.
