Commanders face stiff competition for Ohio State receiver Carnell Tate

So, needing a receiver, the Washington Commanders are interviewing Carnell Tate. The Ohio State star receiver, we learned this week, is garnering a lot of attention from teams drafting early in the first round, leading to speculation that Tate will be drafted early. Tate has interviews scheduled with the Tennessee Titans (selecting fourth), the New York Giants (selecting fifth), the Commanders (selecting seventh), the New Orleans Saints (selecting eighth), and the Kansas City Chiefs (selecting ninth).

At first glance, one can't help but notice that the Browns were not included in the list seeking to interview Tate. This doesn't mean the Browns won't bring in Tate for an interview; they could certainly schedule an interview later. The Browns, choosing one spot ahead of the Commanders at No.

6, certainly need a receiver, so Commanders fans would be wise not to rule out the Browns in teams that might select Tate in the first round. Carnell Tate just glides man… so smooth. (via @Stephen_Means ) pic.
