No, I caught that. You're hoping somebody does something away from consensus and you can get two out of three of those guys with the three picks you have among the first six picks. Entirely relevant. I've got some picks this year that I'm planning on using to influence the draft, though I don't have the one to sort of set it off.
No but his agent will be campaigning for him to be classified as a WR for the cold hard cash
I think you take your #1 from the Chase, Harris, Etienne pool and Pitts will likely be there at 4, If not, you get two of the Chase, Harris, Etienne pool.
Agree, unless I am so RB depleted I'll take a WR with a top 5 ceiling and his 10 years of that over a RB with 5 years of top 10 production
Trust me, I've thought of all the permutations. I only said that I'd consider taking him at #1 as a counterpoint to taking I wouldn't take him at all (because he's a TE).
Also agree but while it would be great for the offense overall, not sure how great it would be for Pitts’ individual stats to have to share with so many other offensive weapons. Gallup could leave in a year or two, but Cooper and Lamb aren’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Yes, from a fantasy perspective I have to agree with you. What's good for an NFL team doesn't always translate to what is good for your fantasy team.
After this season, Amari is year to year, with minimal dead cap, and 22 mill cap hits.
Since it is likely assured that Pitts doesn't make it past pick #6, who cares what he would do to the cowboys? Anna DeArmas becoming my girlfriend would make me much happier but its not likely to happen either.
There have been rumblings that Jerry Jones is fixated on trading up to secure Kyle Pitts

An astonishing 91% of Kyle Pitts’ catches resulted in a TD or first down in 2020. He didn’t drop a single pass. He’s the most athletically gifted TE prospect in the draft in over 10 years.

So that likely means pick 4. Can’t be sure he will be there at 5, and Miami likely takes him at 6 unless they are deciding between him and chase and like chase better. Cowboys at 10 to go to 4 is going to be a large haul for Atlanta.
It does make some sense given your situation but there's a very good chance you get your choice at 1.01 and still get Pitts at 1.04.
What I'd really like to do is take Chase at 1 and Pitts at 4, but since I have one and only one RB (Chubb) on my roster and Zealots Classic leagues require starting two RBs every week...I don't know how I don't use one of those picks on a RB. Now if I knew one of the RBs would make it to 6...
It's early in the process still so all you would need is for one of the RBs outside of the "big three" to end up in Miami, Pitts, ATL, Arizona or the NYJ in the draft and you can probably get a RB at 1.06.
MOP- this is the pitts thread, so we may want to take this to the Phins thread, but This draft really doesn't have a "front seven" guy worthy of 6 this year. Dolphins maneuvered to 6 bc they figured top 3 will be QB, 4 may be one, and 5 will be the inflection point of this draft. Assuming (as most have) that the Pitts Chase conversation is a toss up, then they are perfectly placed to get either one.
This is what I have been saying and Miami has Pick #81 which might allow them to take Jordan in theory there.
6-Front 7
18-Safety/Front 7 again if need be.
36-WR...Elijah Moore all day
50-OL, highest rated IOL we can grab. LB would also be welcome around here, Cox/Bolton.
Surprise Pick-I think Miami can actually maneuver and possibly add picks in this year's draft. Somewhere in the 2nd to earl 3rd Round.
81-I'll say Brevin Jordan to use your example, if not him there are lots of goodies in this range. Possibly an OT slips or Jevon Holland if he falls down the board is an interesting pick if we pass on Moerhig. I have a couple other Safeties that would also make decent picks in the 3rd or 4th round.
-I'm also OK if they want to burn this pick on a RB with some skills that the others on the roster don't...like Kenneth Gainwell who i like a lot.
Pitts is a mistake for the Phins at 6, when you already have a Top 10 TE on the roster. So many holes to fill and we could get a WR in the 2nd Round. Think logically.
And i love Pitts and what he can do potentially in the NFL. But they pay guys to shut guys like him down in the NFL, he just looked amazing in college at times. You want to hitch #6 to that? How about Smith at WR, the smurf, WR at #6, sound good?
Just to be clear, I am a huge Pitts fan and would love to see Miami make a commitment to a 2-TE formation, think it would be great for Tua. That said, let's go back to Miami's deep holes in the Front-7, nothing along the OL, and yes they were ahead of schedule in terms of wins and losses last season.
Miami has 3 other picks in the top 50 of the draft. And extra early picks in future years too.
I have 1.4 and 1,6, and I am trying to figure if I can get Pitts at 6.
Take a look at your teammates rosters for 1.01, - 1.03 and see how they are at TE, because there is a chance he won't be there at 4, especially if the Harris / ETN / Williams don't land in good spots. Even if one or more does, this RB class is nowhere near what last year was and perhaps none of them really deserve a top 3 pick. Of course we all know Harris will and I'm not saying he deserves it, but there is a real chance ETN and Williams are not top 3. It probably won't happen a lot, but I think it will happen.
Not really a dynasty person, but I'd love to expand on this. The teams with a glaring RB need seem to be Pitt, Miami, the Jets, and then maybe Jacksonville (Arizona is now no longer a "landing spot", but if they take a RB he will get some love).
