Draft note

by John Paulsen

The 2019 Godwin Breakout was predicted by many after his 59-842-7 sophomore season and he didn’t disappoint, racking up 86 catches for 1,333 yards and nine scores in 14 games. He was the No. 2 fantasy receiver last season despite missing two games, so his 16.5 PPG (half-PPR) was far and away the second-best at his position (to Michael Thomas). The only question mark heading into 2020 is the quarterback change to Tom Brady after three seasons with Jameis Winston. In recent years, Brady has emphasized the short passing game and Godwin excels out of the slot. He’s also good downfield so if the Bucs play more two-TE and move him outside, it shouldn’t lead to a drop in production.

Buccaneers Beat: A look at WR Chris Godwin's future

The Athletic

Dec 22, 2020 · 10:08 AM EST

Chris Godwin’s numbers are down this year because he missed four games with three separate injuries (concussion, hamstring and finger), but he’s still just two catches behind Mike Evans for the team lead in receptions. Don’t forget his 2019 production in a Pro Bowl season: 1,333 yards and nine touchdowns in 14 games. It’s hard to pay two receivers $15 million or more a year, but they’re such central parts of Bruce Arians’ offense that it’s hard to imagine them trading either of them.

Fantasy Impact:

The author said a possible solution is to give Godwin the franchise tag, which should be around $16 million for one year. The story added writer Sheil Kapadia had Godwin ranked as the No. 2 overall free agent at any position for next year. The piece said if the Bucs don’t think they can afford him longterm, it would be better to franchise him and trade him than to let him walk and only (maybe) get a third-round compensatory pick in 2022.

TB WR Chris Godwin - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Atlanta Falcons

All of the Bucs receivers got to feast last week. Chris Godwin finished with a solid 5-84-1 game on nine targets. Godwin has 50+ receiving yards in seven of his 11 games this season, with touchdowns in five. It's a decent consistency for Godwin, especially considering how many mouths there are to feed in this offense. He's not nearly as productive as he was a year ago, in fact, 30.9 yards less per game productive, but he's still a strong WR2. We like him as a low-end WR1 in Week 17 as he gets a favorable matchup against the Falcons (and some other top-tier WRs will be resting). Godwin finished 4-36-1 against the Falcons in Week 15, although we're expecting him to be more productive this time around.
