Fantasy Football Player Notes
2019 Draft Rankings

20.
Mike Evans
WR - (vs . ATL)
For years, it's been Evans' show in Tampa Bay. He's averaged 148 targets over the last four years. He'll now be competing with Chris Godwin and O.J. Howard, who have carved out important roles in the offense. The arrival of Bruce Arians is a positive on the offense as a whole, but the running backs are going to score a lot more points than they did under Dirk Koetter. Evans is a relatively safe pick as a low-end WR1 but his ceiling may not be what it used to be

40.
Chris Godwin
WR - (vs . ATL)
The hype on Godwin has reached its peak as he's expected to make a splash in Bruce Arians' new offense. With Mike Evans stealing quite a large share of the targets, you have to wonder just how high the ceiling is for Godwin, as the Bucs are likely going to run the ball a bit more under Arians. Godwin is a rock-solid player, but you mustn't forget that he's the No. 2 receiver on his team, and there's also a tight end (O.J. Howard) who deserves a lot of targets by his own right. It's okay to like Godwin in 2019, but keep expectations in check

50.
O.J. Howard
TE - (vs . ATL)
O.J. Howard's 11.8 yards per target in 2018 ranks as the second-highest mark of all time among tight ends who saw at least 40 targets. His mark of 11.1 yards per target in 2017 would rank fifth all-time, but he just missed the cutoff with 39 targets. His career mark of 11.5 yards per target is the best of all-time (since they started tracking targets). In short, he's a rock-solid presence when healthy, but he needs to stay on the field

99.
Jameis Winston
QB - (vs . ATL)
With Fitzpatrick gone, Winston is no longer at risk of surrendering games to the backup. He may not be great in real life, but from a fantasy standpoint, this gunslinger piles up the points. In fact, he and Ryan Fitzpatrick last year combined for the 2nd most fantasy points in football. With one of the top receiving corps in football, Winston could potentially eclipse 4,800 yards with the touchdowns to put him in the top 3.

107.
Peyton Barber
RB - (vs . ATL)
Barber may be boring and might not be your first choice to start for the Bucs, but it is entirely possible he leads this high-powered offense in carries once again and if he does, it should end up much better than last season because Bruce Arians is magic for running backs.

137.
Ronald Jones II
RB - (vs . ATL)
The Bucs told us all we needed to know in the draft and free agency - they don't feel like they need to add another running back. No one is suggesting they're confident Jones will tear the league up, but you should be confident that he's the starter in Bruce Arians' offense, which has historically netted great results. Peyton Barber isn't the long-term answer, so look for them to find out if Jones is, which requires more than the 30 touches he got as a rookie

Breshad Perriman
WR - (vs . ATL)

|
301.
Cameron Brate
TE - (vs . ATL)
He's strictly the backup tight end to O.J. Howard, but that carries some value considering Howard hasn't been able to stay on the field his first two seasons. He'll be useful in streaming situations, as he's now scored at least six touchdowns in each of the last three seasons, but as a backup tight end, he shouldn't be drafted
