NFL GMs: Don’t Wait for Golden Tate
His name will inspire a number of sports clichés to any story describing him. But Golden Tate is anything but a cliché wide receiver.
When you look at the wide out from Notre Dame, he’s average. Tate is right in the middle in terms of height and weight. But he brings much more than a physical presence to the field.

By Peter Christian
The NFL Scouting Combine is one of the sporting events which truly exemplifies my dorky sports obsession. Long before the days of the NFL Network, I was always wishing I could see the drills and skills of the rookie prospects. Now, however, I don’t have to wish and clamor for that ability because for the next week, I will dedicate more than 12 hours to watching the drills live and on replay to whet my appetite for more knowledge about the players that will be drafted on April 22nd, 23rd and 24th.
New this year is the ability to watch both groups on the field with the aid of NFL.com which means I am plopped in front of the TV and the computer… My wife and kids hate me right now, but I’ve got my Powerade, I’m wearing my Under Armour. I’m ready to dive into my own nerdiness.
Laugh away, I’m having the time of my life.

Follow paulmbanksWill this NFL Draft be the Offensive Tackle Draft?
By Paul M. Banks
There are plenty of places to get 2010 NFL Draft prospect lists. But why stop at just providing a mere list? I’m giving you a prediction of where I think all of these great offensive tackles (one of this draft’s most loaded positions) will end up in the draft this April.
