Shapes and sizes. Each has unique traits that if used right can be effective in the right

Im.a huge Tee Higgins fan. Being a lifelong Vol fan its always extra cool when the Bengals
Can draft a UT player. Very glad he was there for the drafting
But I like Auden Tate also. 7th RD pick who was raw coming from FSU.
Yeah I.get it . he's not a burner speed merchant. But thats not his game.
Everyone says he cant seperate or he lacks speed.
If speed was everything then Mario Alford and Phil Dorsett would have set the league on.fire
But Auden Tate does a couple things pretty well. He catches the ball away from.his body
He has strong hands. You never see the ball ripped out of his hands or punched out
He has good footwork getting both feet inbounds.
He is aware of where the 1st down marker is...
He knows how to use his radius.
The thing about Tate is...and people dont get this....if you let him.play less than 15 snaps
A game...how is he supposed to find a rhythm or a groove and get better?
The one year he got some real playing time 72% of his grabs went for 1st downs
With garbage QB play.
Fast foward to 2021
He gets in the game for a snap or 2 then.he is removed.
Then he might go in later....
You.dont get better by watching 95% of the game.
Id like to see him thrown the ball with his momentum going straight
As in stride on a seam route or skinny post.
People talk about his lack of seperation.
Alot of "separation" in the NFL is about getting schemed proper to get open
Zac is not too good in.scheming his targets to get open unless its
A go.route but that usually is just based on pure speed and the CB getting smoked
On bad techniques
I'm confused... being a lifelong Vols fan, how could you not know Higgins played at Clemson?
