Carnell Tate vs Garrett Wilson
Garrett Wilson holds a 31.7% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 10/1/2026
THE CASE FOR TATE
Tate is 4.5 years younger with a cleaner longevity runway, and age insulation matters most at WR in dynasty. The market is already pricing him above Wilson, signaling strong belief in his trajectory and future role expansion. If he hits as a high-end NFL producer, the payoff is multi-year WR1/2 value at a time when Wilson’s peak years are already being spent.
THE CASE FOR WILSON
Wilson is a proven NFL alpha with bankable target-earning ability, and that certainty is what wins dynasty titles. At 26, he’s squarely in his prime and can deliver immediate weekly lineups advantages that prospects often can’t. If you’re paying up for points, Wilson is the side that actually scores them now rather than projecting them later.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Garrett Wilson—take the proven prime producer for immediate points even if the market says Tate is 14.7% higher.
Carnell Tate—take the younger asset with more years of value insulation and upside compounding.
It’s close, but the current market gap is big enough that I’d only take Tate if I’m explicitly rebuilding or can add a small sweetener to Wilson.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
Worth more?
Carnell Tate is worth more by your SF values (4,548 vs 3,880), but Wilson is the more reliable points asset.
Trade?
Contenders should try to flip Tate for Wilson plus a small add; rebuilders can move Wilson for Tate plus a small add.
Superflex?
In SF the QB premium doesn’t materially change this WR-to-WR decision—roster timeline and risk tolerance should drive it.
