Golden Tate through 2018 was a damn good WR, but he's past his sell by date now.

Giants release Golden Tate :

" The Giants have, as expected, released receiver Golden Tate, per multiple reports.

Tate caught only 35 passes for 388 yards in 12 games last year. A second-round pick of the Seahawks in 2010. "

If I was the Ravens I'd pass, but not to him... Bc

Get a solid B tier WR and don't break the bank for a big name

Yes, and let's get a solid 3rd TE too... Bc

It cost the Ravens last year not starting the season with three solid TE's on the roster. I doubt they make that same mistake again.

He and Juju will be the top WRs on the market. If Juju's dancing and the perception that he's a slot receiver depress his market, he might be the better value of the two. Juju's certainly had a lot more productive seasons than Davis and his hard, physical, battling game means that he'll never be a complete non factor the way Davis was for the first 3 years of his career.

The more and more rumors I read I agree with both of you guys. I think Corey Davis signs a 3 year contract anywhere between $45M and $55M.

I didn't realise Tate was so washed up. He used to be a very good player !

He was my draft crush in that class. I would’ve taken him in the 1st round. Then we ended up trading down and ending up with King Serg and Fat Cody.....oof.

But is he passed his use date

Just heard an ESPN interview with Keyshawn Johnson, and he was VERY complimentary of our hiring of both Tee Martin and (especially) Keith Williams, whom he called "Dr. Route".

Said we need to follow up with getting a couple more guys for them to do their work.

You could tell Lamar/Roman were frustrated with Boykin by week 6 after hyping him up all offseason as a guy who would be in a much bigger role.

Davis played in the #2 running offense in the NFL as the WR2, 984 yds. That is a massive upgrade.

Ravens rushing attempts: 555

Titans rushing attempts: 521

It's as close to an even comparison in terms of offensive philosophy as you will find in the NFL

The Ravens barely used Dez Bryant though. It's not like he came in and became The Ravens starting number 2 receiver.
