Saints Target Carnell Tate at 8th

About this episode

The New Orleans Saints, with the eighth pick in the draft, aim to bolster their wide receiver corps, currently lacking reliable depth due to Chris Olaves injury history. Experts suggest they target Ohio States Carnell Tate, a complete receiver with high potential, to complement Olave and support quarterback Tyler Shough. While some question the top-ten pick for a receiver, Tates college production makes him an intriguing high-upside addition for the Saints offseason.

It's March 24th. Welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI, I'm Cory with the story. The New Orleans Saints sit with the 8th overall pick in the draft, putting them in a stronger position than last year, but still needing smart moves to compete. Their wide receiver group lacks reliable depth, especially with star Chris Olave battling injuries that have sideline him too often. Olave shines when healthy, but the team traded away Speedster Rashid Shahi last season, leaving big gaps behind their top guy. Without solid backups, the passing game suffers whenever Olave misses time. Experts like Luke Easternling from Afwan Sports predict the Saints will target Ohio State standout, Carnell Tate at number 8. Tate brings complete receiver skills and potential to pair perfectly with Olave. This addition could steady things for quarterback Tyler Show as he grows into a starter, giving New Orleans more weapons to build around. Fans and analysts see it as a boost. So some question spending a top 10 pick on a receiver.

Still, with Tate's college production, he might just be the high upside play the Saints need to push for this offseason.
