Tates frame is not conducive to being on the LOS and blocking. He’s too tall to get leverage on linebackers and he’s not extraordinarily strong for his position. So he’d basically be a gimmick TE, and knowing he can’t block at all, most teams would be tipped off that we’re passing whenever he is in.



If you wanted to give him TE reps he’d likely be a red zone guy



Basically if this was something he secretly excelled at, we would’ve already had him at TE
