Source transcript excerpt
That was a pretty solid showing and came despite several key injuries (Brock Bowers, George Kittle, Tucker Kraft, Sam LaPorta)... If you miss on those four, you still have plenty of quality-to-serviceable options, including Pitts, Fannin, LaPorta, Kittle, Goedert, Kelce, Ferguson and -- though he's a bit too pricey for me -- Kraft.
