Lance Reisland: Carnell Tate is a safe pick, but I don’t like safe at No. 6

In this episode of Afternoon Drive on The Fan, host Matt Corrali and guest Lance Reisland, a football analyst and reporter for Cleveland.com, dive into the NFL Draft, focusing on the Cleveland Browns' potential selections. Reisland critiques the notion of taking 'safe' picks at No. 6 overall, arguing that while Carnell Tate is a solid, high-upside receiver, he’s not the ideal fit for a team seeking a game-changing weapon. Instead, Reisland champions Jeremiah Love as a dynamic, space-oriented 'touch guy' who can thrive in a modern, pace-and-space offense, even if he’s technically a running back. He contrasts this with traditional backs like Christian McCaffrey and emphasizes the value of versatility and impact over position labels. Reisland also discusses the high-risk, high-reward profile of Ihan Chor, a projected tackle with elite athleticism but significant functional weaknesses that could hinder early production. The conversation touches on offensive scheme compatibility, roster construction, and the importance of film evaluation over conventional wisdom.
