Brandon Tate

[CJD]

I'm genuinely surprised.

I don't think this was the right move.

We are now relying HEAVILY on rookies and young unproven WRs to be our receiving threats.

I never liked Tate as a return man, but I liked him as an emergency WR who could come in and run good routes (see KC game last year).

We are now relying on Boyd, Core, Wright and Erickson as the backside of our receiving corp. A total of 5 receptions in 11 regular season games played.

I know Tate didn't have very many receptions in his career either, but the point still stands.

This is actually pretty tough to swallow haha.
