Draft note

by John Paulsen

Evans posted his 11th straight 1,000-yard season in 2024, finishing as the WR11 overall and WR9 on a per-game basis. He was the WR4 the year prior, and despite turning 32 in August, he’s shown virtually no signs of decline—he finished 5th among 110 qualified receivers in yards per route run. Evans continues to win with physicality, contested catch ability, and elite route nuance, and he remains the focal point of a passing attack led by a rejuvenated Baker Mayfield. While Father Time is always lurking, Evans’ continued dominance suggests he’s not ready to hand over the keys just yet. His age may scare off some drafters, but he’s been one of the most reliable fantasy receivers over the last decade. As long as he and Mayfield stay healthy, Evans should remain a weekly WR1/WR2 option in 2025.

Buccaneers WR Chris Godwin likely to return "Week 5 or later"

Talking on @953WDAE, Bucs GM Jason Licht frames Chris Godwin’s return as likely October (Week 5 or later), saying Tristan Wirfs might be a little sooner.

Related Players: Mike Evans, Emeka Egbuka, Jalen McMillan

Fantasy Impact:

This is about the timeline that we thought he'd be on, but it's still a little confusing why the team took him off of PUP. Regardless, we should consider Evans a WR2 and Egbuka a WR3 as we head into drafts this weekend.

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Carolina Panthers

Mike Evans is doing his best to reach 1,000 yards for an 11th straight season. He needs 182 yards over the final two games. He has a chance to put a good chunk into that number this week. He had 118 yards and a touchdown in the first meeting with the Panthers back in Week 13. In a must-win game for the Buccaneers, where else do you think the ball is going? Evans is going to try and will the Bucs to the playoffs and his fantasy owners to a championship.
