Grade Breakdown
What do these mean?Why 18.5?
Tate's grade is low mainly because his targets produced few expected points, even after crediting him for facing easier-than-average defenses. Only 3 games are in the books, with 20 targets graded. Nothing else moved the grade much either way.
Lifting the grade
- Week 3 vs NYG: a 20-yard catch from Ward on 1st and 10 in the third quarter was worth +1.4 expected points.
- Week 1 vs NYJ: a 14-yard catch on 2nd and 2 in the fourth quarter added +0.9 expected points.
Holding it back
- EPA per target of -0.185 ranked 53rd of 62 WRs, and it pulled the grade down a lot.
- Week 2 vs PHI: an incomplete pass on 3rd and 9 in the fourth quarter cost 1.4 expected points.
- Week 3 vs NYG: an incomplete pass on 3rd and 5 in the third quarter cost 1.4 expected points.
