Tate announced Tuesday that he will forgo his remaining collegiate eligibility at Ohio State to enter the 2026 NFL Draft, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Though often overshadowed by fellow standout receiver Jeremiah Smith, Tate was exceptional in his own right during his three-year career at Ohio State. A highly rated recruit from the Class of 2023, Tate wrapped up his junior season in Columbus with 51 catches for 875 yards and nine touchdowns on 65 targets over 12 games. He profiles as a likely first-round selection and could challenge USC's Makai Lemon as the first receiver off the board in the draft.

Unlikely to fall out of top 10
Tate may not make it past the Saints with the eighth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft if he's still on the board, Katherine Terrell of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The Ohio State product appears to have separated himself from the pack as the top wide receiver in this year's draft class, and Tate could get selected in the top five as a result. The Saints are looking to build a stronger offense around second-year quarterback Tyler Shough, however, and they could pounce with their top pick if Tate was still on the board.
