I don't like him as a #3. Tate has things that he's very good at, but he also has things that he's not very good at.  As a #4, you can work him into spots, get him favorable matchups, and play to his strengths.  As a #3, he's going to be in a lot more positions where he will be forced to play to his weaknesses and we'll see diminishing returns. I personally would like to see someone with a more well rounded skill set in that role.  I think this team would also benefit more from a vertical threat in that spot.

He had 575 yds last season when he was basically the #2. So he was certainly seeing better DB’s than he is as a 4/5. How much of that was in garbage time is debatable, but he was also somewhat limited by bad QB play.
