Who Are the Bucs’ Top Fantasy Players?
Chris Godwin Fantasy Outlook
Godwin managed only a WR33 finish last week against the Eagles, easily his worst finish of the season as he was a top-20 performer in each of the first three weeks.
Last season’s splits against the Falcons were interesting for the Bucs receiver duo as Godwin was the featured piece but did very little with the opportunity.
WR splits vs. Atlanta, 2023
- Godwin: 34.8% target share, scored 59.1% of expected PPR points
- Evans: 21.5% target share, scored 96.5% of expected PPR points
I tend to trust the usage more than the results, and it was clear that Godwin was in the matchup they wanted to exploit — he saw 48% of the fourth-quarter targets over these two games, a set of contests that saw the Buccaneers score 42 points to the Falcons’ 41.
I’m back in on Godwin as an auto-start this week, especially with the Falcons boasting the lowest opponent aDOT in the league (7.6 yards; league average: 10.3).
Mike Evans Fantasy Outlook
Evans snapped a two-game scoreless drought (yes, in the world of Evans, two games constitute as a “drought”) with a first-drive score against the Eagles last week. The strong performance (8-94-1) could have been even better if he hadn’t been subbed out for Trey Palmer after making a big play, as Palmer made the most of that opportunity with a touchdown on the very next play. However, Evans’ managers can’t be mad with his second top-five finish of the season.
The risk is there for Evans given the reduction of downfield chances in this offense (two finishes outside of the top 40 receivers this season), especially in a matchup like this against a Falcons defense that has allowed just eight deep completions on the season (zero touchdowns).
Evans isn’t a perfect player, and I’m not sure I’m counting on Mayfield sustaining his current play for three more months, but this is an offense that I expect to embrace a high pass rate; that will result in him getting home more often than not.
Baker Mayfield Fantasy Outlook
I’m late to the party, but it’s time to consider Mayfield a top-10 option at the position. He has just enough ‘crazy’ in him (10+ yard run in three of four games) to threaten defenses in multiple ways, and he’s excelling at what the defense is giving him.
Through four weeks, Mayfield has the league’s lowest average depth of throw (5.5 yards), and with a quartet of viable playmakers around him, that’s a sustainable source of fantasy income. We saw him execute the script to perfection on the first drive last week (nine passes with four different players seeing multiple targets), and I expect a similar game plan against a divisional rival who has allowed the second-highest completion percentage up to this point (73.4%).
Last season, we saw Mayfield spike at times because he’d run into a Mike Evans takeover spot. This year, he’s controlling the field and this entire offense, something that resulted in a trio of top-five finishes in September. Banking on four in five weeks is a little rich, but I have him as a top-10 play and fully believe that he is worthy of consideration over Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow, two QBs that were among the MVP favorites just one month ago.
