I do think Tate should've beat out Wright for a roster spot.

It's not like he was terrible or worthless.  He even contributed on offense from time to time.

I just don't see why it's so hard to find a decent replacement though.

They shouldn't have to look "on the street".  Players come out of college and FAs are out there every season.

Tate is not Peerman.  CP's a special teams ace that has unwarranted haters because of his lack of offense contribution.

However both are aging and at some point do need to be replaced.  That's just reality.

This team just needs to judge better for their heir apparent...  apparently.  LOL
