Tate's already on my roster (my first 6 are Green, Boyd, Ross, Willis, Erickson and Tate), it's just working out who will be 7th - it would have been Stanley Morgan but his injury situation is murky.
Special Teams is an unequal partner but it's still way more than 5-10 snaps a game. It's every time you kick-off a half, every time a team scores and restarts, every time a team punts - both receiving and kicking. In the 4th quarter I hope to be looking at the special teams receiving the ball after we force a punt and then defending the kick-off after we've scored! Any edge we can get in those phases I'm looking for.
Sorry, i was saying 5-10 punts and kickoffs a game, per team. You'll have punt and kickoff returns, extra points and field goal attempts as well, but i was focusing on the defensive side of the kicking game.
ZT has to decide if he wants to stick with the incumbent or go out on a limb with Morgan and/or now (i believe) Bryant. And to be honest, they probably both should be on the PS but all three have shown a talent that says they should be on the team in some form or another. It's just a matter of if you think they can keep them whomever on this practice squad.
