DET WR Golden Tate - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Seattle Seahawks
In Miami last Sunday Matthew Stafford threw only 22 passes, as the Lions dominated on the ground. Golden Tate was targeted a team-high six times, leading to four grabs for 36 yards. He also contributed to the rushing attack with a 30-yard run in the win. In the past two contests, Tate has totaled just 78 yards without a TD. He’ll be going against the No. 3 pass defense in the Seahawks this week, making Tate a WR3/flex play.

DET WR Golden Tate - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Miami Dolphins

With Matthew Stafford only throwing for 183 yards two weeks ago versus the Packers, Golden Tate finished with season lows of five grabs and 42 yards. In the Lions first five games, Tate is averaging nearly seven receptions, with two 100-yard games and three TDs. Miami’s pass defense is near the bottom of the league so be sure Tate is re-added to your starting lineup.

DET WR Golden Tate - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Green Bay Packers

In the last-second loss at Dallas last week, Golden Tate had his best game of the season, catching all eight of his targets for 132 yards and two TDs. It was the first time he was in the end zone since Week 1 but is averaging 11 looks and seven grabs per game. Green Bay shut out a bad Buffalo offense last week which helped their stats, but there is no way Tate should be left on your bench.

DET WR Golden Tate - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Dallas Cowboys

Matthew Stafford continues to spread the ball around, as he completed 27 passes to nine different pass-catchers in the win over the Patriots last Sunday night. Golden Tate was targeted a team-leading eight times, resulting in six grabs for 69 yards. He has been thrown to 36 times already in 2018 and is averaging 88 total yards per game. Even though the Cowboys' defense has been tough against the pass through three weeks, Tate should remain in your starting lineup.

DET WR Golden Tate - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. New England Patriots

In the loss to the 49ers last Sunday, Golden Tate saw a team-high 13 looks from Matthew Stafford, which led to seven catches for 109 yards. In the first two weeks of the season, Detroit QBs have already thrown the ball 105 times, with 28 of those attempts directed towards Tate. The Lions would like to be a more balanced team but have been playing from behind for most of the first two games. Even if the Sunday night affair versus the Patriots is a closer contest, Tate should remain in your starting lineup, especially after the game Blake Bortles and the Jaguars had versus the New England secondary.

DET WR Golden Tate - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at San Francisco 49ers

While there wasn’t much for Lions fans to be excited about in the embarrassing loss to the Jets last Monday, Golden Tate finished with good fantasy numbers—seven catches, 79 yards and the lone offensive TD. He was targeted a team-high 15 times, as Detroit signal-callers threw 52 passes. Despite continued struggles on the ground, expect a more balanced attack in what should be a more competitive contest at San Francisco. Tate remains a WR2 play.

DET WR Golden Tate - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. New York Jets

After registering over 90 grabs for more than 1,000 yards last season, Golden Tate remains a model of consistency since his arrival in Detroit. Matthew Stafford looks his way often, which led to Tate catching at least seven passes in eight contests last year. Look for the Lions' passing game to feature Tate on Monday night, so be sure he is part of your starting lineup.
