redsbengalsbucks Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 7 minutes ago, AMPHAR said: There's going to be a scrum for Special Teams only roles. Tate got his game day spot as primary KR because Sanu and Jones had such strong roles in the offense. Now that's unsettled. I don't think Tate will win a spot as WR role. If the Bengals can't find 2 WR to fill the Sanu/Jones role and that grows to 3, that's trouble for Tate. Also prior to knee injury Wright was a great gunner for LSU. Alford runs sub 4.4. They just added sub 4.4 corner. Then there's Hewitt and Burkhead. If a combination of these guys push for active game day roles as apart of the offensive/defensive gameplan it's going to effect the Special team's only roles that Tate and Peerman have had. You are correct, Sir! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShulaSteakhouse Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 They re-signed Tate for a reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMPHAR Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Tate was resigned before the draft. That just means he'll get the opportunity to compete in training camp. There's nothing from that contract that would influence roster decision if he doesn't fit. He got 100K to sign and that's all they would eat (dead money) if cut and would save 900K in cap.
