Auden Tate

After dropping three balls in the previous two games, Tate made a few highlight reel grabs in Week 6, re-instilling confidence in him as a primary target for Dalton. The issue is that he'll match-up with one of Jalen Ramsey or A.J. Bouye, depending on Ramsey's status. I will say that Tate would get a massive bump in the rankings if Green plays and Ramsey doesn't, as it would mean Bouye covering Green. If Green doesn't play, you have to at least consider Tate, who's now seen at least six targets in each of the last four games, including a career-high 12 targets last week. The Jaguars have only allowed a 60 percent completion-rate to receivers, but those catches have gone for an average of 14.2 yards per reception. Tate's average depth of target is just 9.5 yards, so it's tough to say he'll be the one who benefits from that. He can be considered a middling WR4 with not much upside this week, though there are many variables with Green and Ramsey.

Auden Tate leads Bengals in receiving

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Auden Tate caught 5-of-12 targets for 91 yards in a 23-17 loss to the Ravens in Week 6.

Fantasy Impact

Tate drew a team-high 12 targets, although he wasn't very efficient with those looks. Nonetheless, Tate is worth using as a flex option in fantasy for as long as A.J. Green remains sidelined. The Bengals take on the Jaguars in Week 7.
