FantasyPros Articles on Carnell Tate
From the article
Going as the WR35, Tate is set up for a rookie season that could mirror one of last year's best first-year receiver breakouts. His new coaching staff has a track record of funneling its passing offense through one clear primary receiver. There's a real path to a 26 to 27% target share this year, with the swing factor being whether his quarterback plays more like his explosive college self now that he's surrounded by real weapons for the first time.
STACKED’s take
Tate's elite college production and coaching scheme suggest 26-27% target share upside.
Going as WR35, Tate is set up for a rookie season that could mirror one of last year's best first-year receiver breakouts. His new coaching staff has a track record of funneling its passing offense through one clear primary receiver, and while a teammate had a strong season last year, that came specifically while the depth chart around him had fallen apart, not because that player is the long-term alpha of this offense. The draft-process skepticism about Tate not facing top competition or lacking top-end speed echoes the exact same unfair narratives applied to other recent top receiver prospects who went on to prove doubters wrong. His college production was outstanding, including a 68.8% contested catch rate and zero drops in his final season despite a high average depth of target. There's a real path to a 26 to 27% target share this year, with the swing factor being whether his quarterback plays more like his explosive college self now that he's surrounded by real weapons for the first time.
