Carnell TateTEN
Matt Waldman dismisses glowing reviews from a Friday practice session as uninformative hype, arguing that Tate didn't demonstrate anything on the practice field that he hasn't already shown on film; the three-touchdown day in shirts-and-t-shirts practice is not predictive of NFL performance and represents overreaction by beat writers unfamiliar with his actual tape. Bob Harris notes he didn't do anything different than what he's shown on film; the nuance on tape exceeded what practice in shirts and t-shirts revealed. Tate is a rookie WR in a non-elite Titans offense, making WR1 value expectations hazardous; he's best viewed as a WR3/WR4 with WR2 upside if everything clicks in Brian Daboll's system.
