Auden Tate: Where to play him

Knock him all you want, for his lack of speed.  His other qualities still make him a damn good football player.

Things went kind of sideways and this thread became about what WRs folks like, etc, but I thought Tate might be (especially with Green out) a better candidate in the slot to utilize his strengths and Boyd could do everything Green did.  

People get hung up on 40 times, but Jerry Rice was not a burner rather he was an outstanding route runner.  Some of these things can be taught (some can't) and I thought the work that Tate put in this offseason showed a lot of his desire.  The guy has hands like glue and is tough as nails.  As you said, he is a damn fine ball player and I want to find ways to get him on the field.  

TJ Houshmanzadeh was no burner, either, but was tough as nails and "smooth" in his route running.  He also had great hands.  I see Tate as a bigger version of TJ and the more I watched him the more I was impressed with his route running.
