Last year he finished as the 9 th ranked WR and currently has an ADP of 22. It’s not a hot take that Evans has top-3 WR potential. (New York Giants, Atlanta Falcons, Houston Texans, New Orleans Saints ) Two of the teams are on the docket twice. Evans will have six games this season facing opponents whose secondaries ranked in the bottom 23 in the NFL last season in passing yards allowed. This season the Buccaneers have the benefit of a relatively easy schedule. You can bet Coach Arians will find ways to get his big bodied receiver more involved in the red zone this year, and more TDs means more fantasy points. Of the six catches, four went went to the house for touchdowns.Īt 6’5” Evans has the physical capabilities to be a red zone threat. In 2018 Evans was only targeted in the red zone 14 times, catching only six of those 14 targets. Last season the only knock on Mike Evans was his lack of a red zone presence. This innovative way of using players is one reason to get even more excited about Evans ceiling this season. From seasons 2015-2017 Fitz’ caught over 100 passes and 1,000 yards each of the three seasons. That transition didn’t take off immediately but when it did Fitzgerald hauled in more receptions than he had ever managed to do in a single season. When Arians took over as head coach in Arizona, Larry Fitzgerald was already considered an elite receiver but instead of leaving things the same he boldly transitioned Fitzgerald from lining up outside to the slot. He could still possibly be hampered by the uncertainty at QB but with Bruce Arians captaining this ship you can guarantee Evans will be used even more efficiently in Tampa’s offense. Personally, I think the sky’s the limit for Evans this season. Amidst QB uncertainty in Tampa last season, Evans still managed to rake in a career high 1,524 reception yards.Īdding to the accolades, the former TAMU standout averaged a career best 17.7 YPC mark, and 95.3 yards per game, another career high. At only 25, Evans is one of the premier receivers in the NFL and is just entering his prime. In his five NFL seasons he has never missed more than two games and has never had less than 1,000 yards. Mike Evans has been the definition of consistency for the Buccaneers. Not to be forgotten, I’ll talk about how Jameis Winston can redeem himself and why fans should believe in his return to fantasy football relevance. Want a hot take? I’ve got one on Godwin below. Joining Evans, Chris Godwin has become a popular breakout candidate in 2019.
