PLAYER ANALYSIS
Good athlete with above-average move blocking skills both laterally and up to the second level, but his lack of size will force a move inside that creates new concerns. While Tate has an accurate radar and efficient hands as a run blocker, he lacks pop at the point of attack and is a below-average finisher. His lack of width and mass could be problematic against NFL bull-rushers and two-gappers as well. Whether it is at guard or center, his athleticism is appealing buy his lack of size traits hurts his cause.
