Golden Tate
WR - DET
2017 Outlook
Expert Note
View More NotesAfter starting the year as a droppable fantasy asset, Tate totaled 943 yards and four touchdowns over the final 11 games in 2016, which was good enough to be the No. 10 wide receiver in that span. The Lions lost Anquan Boldin and replaced him with a late third-round rookie.

Golden Tate caught 3 of 5 targets against Seattle on Saturday night for 25 receiving yards. He had one carry but did not gain any yardage.
Fantasy Impact
It was a tough night for Matthew Stafford and all of his receivers but Tate made issues worse with a couple drops early in the game. That said, his season was ultimately relatively successful as Tate cleared the thousand yard mark for the second time in three years put together a third consecutive season of 90 or more receptions. While the relatively undersized receiver isn't much of a touchdown maker, he does offer solid flex value in standard leagues and is a useful WR2 PPR option as Matt Stafford's favorite target. Without the post-Calvin Johnson hype in 2017, Tate should be looked at in the third to fifth rounds in redraft leagues in the upcoming fantasy season.
