Carnell Tate

2026 NFL Draft Coverage: Carnell Tate

All Access, Dynasty, Rookie / By /

Carnell Tate was a 3-year player for The Ohio State Buckeyes and was a starter in both 2024 and 2025. He steadily improved his production with each passing season. His freshman season saw him catch 18 passes for 264 yards and 1 touchdown. His most productive season came as a senior, where he caught 51 balls for 875 yards and 9 touchdowns. He played alongside multiple highly-touted receivers throughout his time at Ohio State, including Marvin Harrison Jr., Emeka Egbuka and Jeremiah Smith, which meant that he was never the primary target for the Buckeyes. Even still, it should be noted that he managed to produce great numbers despite being the team’s secondary target which could indicate that he can take on a larger role at the next level.

 

FILM

 

Carnell Tate might be the most fluid mover at the wide receiver position in this draft class. He is not an elite athlete, nor is he going to blow you away with speed, but he is an extremely polished route runner and technically sound receiver who wins with body control, precision and an adept understanding of the opposing defensive coverages. He has a knack for winning 50/50 scenarios and will allow his quarterback to trust him even if he isn’t creating obvious separation. His game at the next level will largely be predicated on scheme. If he is deployed on the outside to win deep or is asked to win consistently against press coverage he will struggle. His strengths are in finding the soft spots in zone coverages and in the short and intermediate sections of the field.

2026 NFL Draft Coverage: KC Concepcion

All Access, Dynasty, Rookie / By /

KC Concepcion began his career playing for the North Carolina State Wolfpack, where he quickly showed off his talent with 71 catches for 839 yards and 10 touchdowns while also running the ball 41 times for 320 yards. It was one of the more impressive freshman seasons that we have seen in recent memory, though much of his production was manufactured closer to the line of scrimmage. He saw considerable regression in 2024 during his sophomore season, catching only 53 balls for 460 yards and 6 touchdowns in nearly an equivalent amount of games. There are some questions as to whether the offense and quarterback were simply too poor to get him the ball that season, or if he was experiencing a sophomore slump after teams had some film on him.

Concepcion bet on himself, however, and transferred to Texas A&M for his third and final season of college football. He put together arguably his best season with the Aggies and showed improvements in his skill set that were encouraging, leading up to his jump to the NFL. He caught 61 balls for 919 yards and 9 touchdowns, which led the SEC. His 15.1 Y/R was also the best of his college career. 

FILM

The first thing that jumps off the screen when you turn on the tape for KC Concepcion is his natural explosive ability and knack for creating separation in the short and intermediate parts of the field. He is a friendly target for his quarterback due to the ease with which he gains separation at the break point of his routes. Between his time with NC State and Texas A&M, he showed versatility in lining up both outside and in the slot, along with out of the backfield. He is a player who you just put the ball in his hands and watch him go to work, and a creative offensive playcaller will have a field day.

2026 NFL Draft Coverage: Jordyn Tyson

All Access, Dynasty, Rookie / By /

Jordyn Tyson was a four-year college player who began with the Colorado Buffaloes in 2022 and transferred to finish his career with the Arizona State Sun Devils from 2023 to 2025. As a freshman, Tyson showed some flashes in the nine games that he played, catching 22 passes for 470 yards and 4 touchdowns prior to tearing his ACL, MCL, and PCL. After an injury-plagued 2023 season where he never saw the field, Tyson truly broke out in a Sun Devils uniform in 2024, catching 75 passes for 1,101 yards and 10 touchdowns. His 2025 season saw him take a significant step back in raw numbers, however. He caught only 61 balls for 711 yards and 8 touchdowns, but it is well known that he was limited by a hamstring injury for a couple of games. 

FILM

If you ignore the injury history and only pay attention to his on-field work, Jordyn Tyson was one of the most dominant wide receivers in all of college football. He possesses a versatile skill set that allows him to thrive at all levels of the field. He has produced on the outside, in the slot, and in motion, which makes him a movable chess piece for any offensive coordinator. He is an elite athlete with exceptional body control and soft hands that can reel in any ball thrown his way. He lacks elite speed, but wins with an excellent release package and savvy route running. He also has a basketball background that shows up frequently on tape, particularly in the red zone.

ATHLETIC TESTING

Though Tyson did not do any on-field drills at the NFL Scouting Combine, he did host a pro day that left many NFL scouts salivating. He showed off his twitch, athleticism, explosiveness, and leaping ability that helped him to be successful throughout his college career. He did not do any athletic testing during his pro day, but he has been previously clocked around a 4.5s 40-yard dash and was able to bench press 26 times at the combine.

Devy / By /

While it might seem like it is a bit early to be making any definitive calls on freshmen, we have to recognize that we’re already through 25% of the college football season after this week’s games. Freshmen need to produce early in their college careers, and it is even more important for them to at least step on the field. In this article, I will discuss the freshmen I am most concerned about starting the season.

With the majority of the bigger, more well-known names now gone, the second round becomes increasingly more difficult to draft. The players listed below either have holes in their game, are in extremely unpredictable situations, or both, making things interesting this season on FanDuel Sportsbook. They are currently ordered based on my personal rankings and current news that has come out of spring camps. Enjoy!
