Auden Tate - Breakout Year with Burrow?

Tate had 575 yards in 10 starts. Over the course of a full season, that'd be over 900 yards.
Mike Williams had 664 yards in 2018 and 1001 yards in 2019 with likely-HOF-bound Rivers throwing to him.
I imagine Williams will probably decrease in production too with Taylor/Herbert at QB.
With that said, I see Williams' lack of speed being a major factor in him never ascending to being a true good WR1.
As such, I don't see Tate ever getting to the level of a true good WR1 either, but he's capable of being a good WR2/3.

Lack of speed?  Mike Williams ran a 4.49 40.  Williams had 17 catches of 20+ yards and 8 catches of 40+ yards last year.  Tate had 8 of 20+ yards and 0 of 40+.  They are not comparable because Williams is a legitimate deep threat that can take the top off the defense and Tate is not.

Some YouTube "expert" makes a vid comparing the two and they are suddenly equivalent players.
