From the video
He ended up having a very nice 69 yards, caught five of seven targets... 33 in PPR points per game... three of his last four or so that we've seen him catch, you know, five or six passes for 50-60 plus yards... 100-plus yard booms... pleasantly surprised with the sort of floor we've had for the number four overall pick... 9.9 PPR points, you know, as your floor in an offense that only threw for 181 yards... 29% of his routes today from the slot... Everything of the underlying data told us he was good. But he still finishes a wide receiver four... he was on an offense that averages like 163 passing yards per game. So that's where the floor is with Tate
STACKED’s take
No. 4 pick with 9.9 PPR floor; 5-6 catches in 3 of last 4 games.
The number four overall pick has provided a surprisingly solid floor with 9.9 PPR points in an offense that threw for only 181 yards; in three of his last four games, he's caught 5-6 passes for 50-60+ yards with 100+ yard booms mixed in. In Week 7, he posted 69 yards on 5-of-7 targets (though he lost a fumble). Hartitz notes he's been pleasantly surprised by the floor production from the rookie despite early concerns about him being just a contested catch specialist. Tate is being integrated across multiple route depths and slot usage (29% of routes from slot), not just as a boundary vertical threat, showing versatility beyond preconceived role. However, plays per game and yards per game remain the limiting factors; floor comparison is Drake London's rookie year (WR4 finish despite strong underlying metrics like yards per route run and target share, due to low passing volume). Cam Ward's offensive production is critical to Tate's ceiling.
