Kyle Pitts Can Become Atlanta Falcons' Julio Jones Replacement

Julio Jones, 32, remains the standard-bearer for all wide receivers because he's physically different and is capable of taking over a game at a moment's notice.

After years of watching Jones record premium production, the Atlanta Falcons can transition to yet another potential standard-bearer at another position.

Florida's Kyle Pitts, 20, is different than any tight end prospect in recent memory. It's even unfair to designate him as a tight end when he should be viewed as the top offensive weapon in this year's draft class.

Because of Pitts' enormous talent, the Falcons have a potentially franchise-changing decision with the fourth overall draft pick.
