Auden Tate is Much Better Than Most People Think

Since Tate entered the league, Ross has actually dressed for more games.  A lot of the games Tate did dress for, he only played a handful of.snaps.  Hard to get hurt standing on the sidelines.

You play the players that produce the most when they're healthy.  When both guys are healthy, Ross is more productive.  

That's also not even taking into account scheme.  Ross can effectively run a full route tree. As discussed earlier, Tate isn't fast enough to be effective deep and doesn't have the short area quickness to be effective on a lot of short routes, making him only really effective on intermediate stuff. You're limiting what you can do with your play calling by having him in the game.

Not only that,but you're presumably drafting Joe Burrow, statistically the best deep ball passer in college last year, and you're going to insert one of slowest WR's in the league over the fastest?

The reality is, both guys have injury issues and warts with their play on the field.  Hopefully, better talent comes in next year and pushes them down the depth chart.

Yeah Tate really didn't contribute much on the field 
All he did was average 14.1 per catch and led the team in 1st down to catch ratio.
Like I said Tate is a red zone threat that had a coaching staff 
That poorly schemed up red zone packages last year
