RE: Uh yeah Tate can go on the practice squad (sarcasm) - bengaloo - 08-10-2018
I think I would've been impressed if the only pass Tate caught was the TD, but the fact that he caught two more balls in dominant fashion kind of left my jaw dropped for a minute. I dont care if the guys covering him are backups. They are still talented football players who will play in another league if they dont stick in the NFL. It's not like Tate did all that with me covering him lol. He looked dominant and natural making those catches. He has the natural ability to position his body to make a play on the ball and his jump timing is totally awesome. I would probably pencil him in a lot higher on the depth chart in the coming games. I bet they will.

Reminds me of Plaxico Burress.

He reminds me of that big, tall, white WR with long hair that everybody loved last year.

Oh people will be pissed when Core makes it over him.

I don't think so. Marvin clearly has a gleam in his eye about this dude.

We struggled in the red zone last year. Tate is an excellent red zone option as he is tall enough to go up and get it, and big enough to take it away from defenders. He needs to play...

I can see him and Brandon Marshall as 2 he COULD become.
But long way to go. He does seem tp have strong hands and understands how to use his body already like some if the great TE's like Gronk. No, I am not comparing him to Gronk overall or think he should be a TE.

He would add another dimension in the red zone
Green
Eifert
Tate
Or 2 of the 3 above with Boyd or Ross

I think Auden should be having snaps with the 1's if he keeps this up, let alone make the team.
Last i heard the team with the most TD's wins the game, Auden Tate is a TD machine.
Need to have him atleast be in on every Red Zone trip. How many Corners can handle this guy in the Red Zone?
I bet Will Jax might even have trouble with him.

well said. not just any cb..the teams other 3rd or 4th cb.
sure he has long way to.go as someone said...that can be said for a rookie...a 2nd yr player
or a even a 3rd year stiff like Cedric Og.
how many other teams have a 6'5 WR that their 3rd or 4th cb has to defend day in day out?
look Chris Henry wasnt a finished product he didnt put up 90 catches 1400 yds at WV
but his measureables made him a matchup issue with lesser CB.
i can see Tate have a TD to catch ratio in time like Henrys.
lets 6'5 Tate vs 5'11 CB in the red zone.
add his radius its like throwing to a 7 footer.
he just gives you mismatches that Core or Erickson cant give you .

True, he wouldn't even be getting the best Corner, that would be AJ most of the time. If Ross can live up to his
potential and Eifert can stay healthy this is a nightmare matchup for Secondarys in the Red Zone...
Frickin' nightmare i am tellin' yah.
Liked Core for his size, speed and physicality but none of that matters if you cannot catch the ball.
Auden Tate is a natural at this and has even better size.

Love Ace Boogie's stuff.
Anthony K. on Orange and Black Insider talked about how Tate hasn't proven anything against top CBs. He has a point, but I wanted to point out that Tate beat Dre K. & K. Russell on that video. I know those guys aren't "top" cbs, but most teams only have one, and that guy's going to be on AJ, not Tate. Dre IS a starter, and Russell does get alot of snaps as a backup. If he can get open against them, I don't think we need to worry too much.

And if by some miracle Eifert is on the field...
Imagine trying to cover AJ, Eifert, and Tate in the RZ!

......I think it's safe to say that if they don't give the kid a roster spot, they're out of their collective minds.
