Draft note

by John Paulsen

Evans finished as the No. 13 fantasy receiver (half-PPR) but he had the third-highest per game average in 2019. In 2018, he was the No. 8 fantasy receiver and he was No. 18 the year before. He’s dealing with a quarterback change (to Tom Brady), so there may be some growing pains there. He had the third-highest average depth of target of all the receivers with at least 80 targets, and Jameis Winston was slightly more accurate than Brady on his deep passing attempts, defined as attempts of 20 yards or more. Winston also attempted 2.3 more deep balls per game--leading the league in that metric--though Brady may push the ball downfield at a higher rate this season given the talent that he now has at receiver and Bruce Arians’ mentality of throwing the ball deep early and often.

Bruce Arians on Mike Evans' knee: 'no structural damage'

Jan 04 · 1:51 PM EST

“The MRI showed no structural damage,” Bucs head coach Bruce Arians told the media Monday. “It was a hyperextension. I saw him in the training room a little while ago – there’s very, very little swelling and he’ll be day-to-day. While Evans’ status for Saturday’s wild-card game against the Washington Football Team is still unclear, Arians said he’s hopeful Evans will be able to practice by Thursday.

Fantasy Impact:

It looks like the Bucs dodged a big bullet here and hopefully, Mike Evans will be back in time for some playoff action.

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Atlanta Falcons

Mike Evans had an insane game last week, tearing apart the Lions for a 10-181-2 stat line. He's now 40 yards shy of 1,000 on the season, which is a milestone the Bucs have been open about wanting to get Evans to. Evans has topped 100 receiving yards in back-to-back games, and one of those games was against the Falcons — his matchup this week. While it'd be unfair to predict another 100-yard game, it is fair to expect a big game from Evans once again. He's on a hot streak, and the Bucs want to at least get him to 40+ yards. It's also a favorable matchup against a Falcons defense allowing the third-most receiving yards to WRs this season. Evans is a must-start WR1 in Week 17.
