Carnell Tate on playing like Davante Adams and why you should draft Ohio State players

On the routine that keeps his ball skills sharp

"I've always got a ball on me, whether it's around the house or out. Then, also just the JUGS machine. Spending hours on the JUGS, doing as many catches as possible.

"How many hours a week? So I don't know, my day is pretty much filled with football. Probably outside of the football part. I probably got only two hours to myself... So, probably, at least nine hours of football a day."

On the completely unsurprising worst place he's ever played

"That team up north."

On his partnership with PayPal

"I've been using PayPal all throughout my life and I'm familiar with it. The family uses it. So it's only right to [partner with] something that I'm very familiar with."

Carnell Tate's scouting reports for his draftable Ohio State teammates

S Caleb Downs:

"Caleb doesn't really miss tackles. His play recognition is off the chart. His IQ is unbelievable The overall game speed is remarkable.

[On whether he's better against the pass or the run]

"Both. He's gone out there and caught picks and then he's also gone out there and hit people to cause multiple fumbles. So I think he's just as effective at both."

EDGE/LB Arvell Reese:

"He's a game changer. He's gone out there and rushed the quarterback at an unbelievable rate. He's done a great thing. He's flying around the ball. He's like a "see ball, go get ball" [player]. He's done an unbelievable job for us in our defense this past year."

LB Sonny Styles:

"Sonny brings everything. He is the voice of the defense, so he is making sure everyone's in the correct spot and then he's also making sure the people are correct. He's fixing everyone's problem and then he also can cover, but then he also can fit the run, so he brings tools to the table."

CB Davison Igbinosun:

"He's a culture changer. When he came to Ohio State, he changed the culture. He's very physical, he is very loud. He talks his crap and he also goes out there and back it up. He plays with a lot of passion on the field, so that only continues to spread throughout the locker room and other guys will play just like him."
