Auden Tate posts brutal 4.69-second 40-yard dash

Florida State wide receiver Auden Tate posted one of the worst times among wide receivers at the NFL Combine, finishing with unofficial times of 4.69 and 4.74 seconds.

Fantasy Impact:

We knew Tate wasn't fast, but this is not going to sit well with NFL teams. He's not a route technician and struggled to gain separation on the college level. He made up for that with phenomenal body control, and consistently came down with his contested catches. He knows how to use his body extremely well to shield defenders, though that's something that cannot be seen at the Combine. This is definitely a knock to his draft projection, as he'll likely slip into the third-round.
