Former Florida Gators tight end Kyle Pitts was the No. 1 player in the 2021 NFL Draft. He may not have been selected No. 1 overall, but only because the quarterback position will always be valued higher than the tight end position. However, Pitts was the first non-quarterback selected in the draft when the Atlanta Falcons took Pitts No. 4 overall.
The Falcons were an excellent fit for Pitts, and he will be joining an already loaded offense.
