The debate (or lack thereof) starts with the second-string tight end. We know what Kyle Pitts can be but the difference between this year and last for Pitts is that he will have a dangerous running mate with Jonnu Smith.
MyCole Pruitt did an excellent job taking over for Pitts last year but Jonnu has proven he can be a sneakily explosive tight end. He had an eight-touchdown season in his most recent year with Arthur Smith, so even though he had a couple of rough years in New England, we know we have a coach who can use him correctly.
The rest of the field isn't elite. Nevertheless, Parker Hesse is a versatile piece and we don't know what John FitzPatrick can be.
