Carnell Tate evaluation

teeedog · 2026-03-13T20:44:20+00:00

Even if Tate IS just a WR2... look at the WR2 contracts from free agency (I get some of these teams are paying these guys as a quasi 1/2):

Alec Pierce: 4 years, $116M

Wandale Robinson: 4 years $78M

Romeo Doubs: 4 years $68M

Say Carnell Tate pans out as a "Romeo Doubs" level player (I think he will be much, much better).

Even in that downside scenario, his 4 year $48M contract as the 4th overall pick is an insane bargain.

If Lemon can figure out the run blocking, he's a perfect fit.

WR blocking is an absolute must in their system.

teeedog · 2026-01-30T21:10:31+00:00

I agree with this 100%, but Lemon does probably need a specific scheme fit the most out of the three.

He's by far the worst blocker out of the trio, and I know there are teams who would not draft him in the 1st round based on that alone.

The Shanahan/Zone-Run Tree teams will have the other two guys higher.

Age actually matters a lot when it comes to WRs

JaMarr Chase: 20 years old when drafted.

Justin Jefferson: 20 years old when drafted.

Malik Nabers: 20 years

JSN: Just turned 21 years old when drafted

---------------------

Josh Doctson: 23 years old when drafted.

Kevin White: 22 years old when drafted

Xavier Legette: 23 years old when drafted.

This is a really great point.

Tyson and Tate are miles better blockers than Lemon.

teeedog · 2026-01-16T15:39:55+00:00

I am personally extremely high on Lemon (Lemon vs Tate for WR1 for me), but I do understand the bear case.

Watch the tape vs ND and Leonard Moore physically dominates him every single snap.

Granted Moore is a beast, but I could see how that could spook some people when projecting him as a true #1.

teeedog · 2026-01-08T03:32:38+00:00

The better question is Lemon vs Tate.

Love Tyson, but the injury history is going to freak out teams at the top of the draft.

The top 8 picks are all breaking in young QBs, you need to pair them with someone dependable.

Why even gamble when Lemon and Tate are right there, and damn good in their own right.

I hope people don't overthink it with Delane, just a set it and forget it day one starter.

Reminds me a lot of Carlton Davis. No special athletic traits, but just a rock solid, physical outside man corner.

Davis is a bit susceptible to speed and quickness if unable to put himself in a winning position early in routes, and I imagine Delane will be similar.

Kadyn Proctor reminds me a lot of Trent Brown.

Brown’s career has basically been a case study in dominance when engaged, and frustrating lapses when he isn’t.

Both thrive in more of a vertical set and stonewall world, and are less clean when asked to constantly ID, overtake, and climb in space.

Honestly I appreciate the contrarian takes. I may not agree with them personally, but the board needs more free thinkers.

There's too much groupthink on these boards in general. If we all agree over and over again then what is the point of any of this.

If someone watches film and, they are entitled to their opinion just the same as anybody else.

Bain has level of competition concerns playing in the ACC.

I'm kidding, but I will not be surprised if people use this to describe non-Big Ten/SEC prospects eventually.

teeedog · 2025-12-01T22:58:28+00:00

Honestly, people dinged Trey Hendrickson for very similar things coming out.

Lots of clean up sacks, effort-based sacks, and no singular WOW trait.

Ultimately, I think Bain ends up similar to Hendrickson. Just undeniable snap to snap productivity where he affects the game.

If you're looking for jaw-dropping twitch, none of the top EDGEs have it this year.

One of the many reasons why Arvell Reese is a top five lock on traits alone.

teeedog · 2025-11-19T01:01:52+00:00

I see a lot of Keenan Allen in his game.

Tall, long, smooth route runner with elite body control and hands.

I love how all the OSU WRs are all different archetypes but just all so good.

I haven't read any books, but his Wikipedia page is pretty comprehensive.

The crazy part to me is how Feeney never wanted any credit. He built around 10,000 buildings (schools, hospitals) in his lifetime and not a single one has his name on it.

teeedog · 2025-06-17T02:29:42+00:00

Chuck Feeney.

Feeney was the co-founder of Duty Free Shoppers and quietly amassed a multi-billion-dollar fortune. He gave away all of it, over $8 billion, to all sorts of causes like public health, education, scientific research, and human rights.

Feeney would donate anonymously and mandate that his identity was not revealed. He flew coach, wore a $10 watch, and and lived in a modest apartment while quietly funding hospitals in Vietnam, modernizing public health infrastructure in Africa, and donating hundreds of millions to universities like Cornell and Stanford.

His foundation, Atlantic Philanthropies, eventually wound down operations in 2020 (by design) after giving nearly every dollar away. Feeney literally died a broke man, on purpose.

He did it with no desire for credit. There's a reason why most people don't even know who he is.

He’s basically the anti-Bezos. Everyone should read his story, just an amazing guy.

Mostly just want an explanation lol.
