I don't doubt his abilities -- they're surely well proven.
I just doubt we're likely to pass on Surtain when he's needed so badly.
We'll see about that, though. We have enough quality with our TE's that we could pass on him.
There are quality TEs, then there are HOF TEs. Same with players. Pitts looks like true HOF potential. Surtain? More like a good player.
Our last 10 was more like Pitts than Surtain.
Spending on Pitts surely isn't a need. But he's a talent hard to pass up, especially with no truly special defensive players as alternatives.
But with Pitts' 40 time, I doubt he drops to us at all. His potential will surely occur to everyone, and someone will bite before we have a chance. If nothing else, some bottom market team will take the opportunity to get a special player to get butts in the seats for their otherwise lackluster games.
