What about a guy like a Golden Tate or Steve Smith. They seem like they should be slots guys but try telling them that and they'll roast you.

True... the elusive, small outside receiver.

ETA: It really wasn't until recently (as a previous poster mentioned) that "slot" was synonymous for small and fast. In the mid-90s, slot guys were tightend/wide receiver tweeners of the JJ Stokes build.
