And don't forget the speedy Thomas or Stanley Morgan. Throw in Erickson and this is still a stacked group.

No DB should take the ball from Tate. Like, WJ3 makes that play against any normal sized WR. Tate is freakishly huge with long arms and is great at catching that stuff.
I remember an interview immediately after the 2018 draft where Duke Tobin was asked who his favorite pick was or to give his sleeper pick. Like, one that he was most looking forward to, stole, etc.... And he immediately said Auden Tate. He went on to talk about his catching ability/hands, catch radius, body control, work ethic, etc. and seemed genuinely excited to have gotten him that late.
Silver lining here, to me, is that WJ3 was in position to make the play on nearly any WR and that Tate/Burrow made the perfect throw & catch.
Auden has received a lot of hype on here but he is starting to deserve it. Good for him.
