2023 Outlook
Depth Chart
Make it nine-straight seasons with at least 1000 receiving yards for Evans including last season when he posted 77 receptions for 1,124 yards and six touchdowns. Evans had 27 fewer receptions than Godwin, but over 100 more yards and three more touchdowns as he's yards per reception (14.6) dwarfed Godwin's (9.8).

Evans turns 30-years-old on Aug. 21, hitting the general age of decline. His streak of consistency will need to overcome the age curve and the quarterback downgrade from Tom Brady. Is it possible? Mayfield has excelled with the deep ball on occasion his career, using the play-action pass, but it's safe to wonder if this is the season Evans' fantasy numbers take a slight dip. The fantasy community thinks so, as Evans is currently going a few picks later than Godwin in the WR28 range. Evans is more volatile than Godwin given the deep targets which is something to keep in mind as you build out your WR room. He's an uncomfortable selection in the mid-rounds given the uncertain nature of the Bucs offense in 2023.

News From The Past 90 Days
Baker Mayfield sticking in Tampa Bay, 3-year deal
$50M guaranteed
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Mar 10, 4:58 pm

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Sources: The #Bucs are closing in on a deal with QB Baker Mayfield, helping Tampa Bay become home for their starter. He gets a 3-year deal worth $100M with $50M guaranteed. The Bucs continue to work on keep their core. (Ian Rapoport on X)

FFToday's Take: The Bucs have kept Baker and WR Mike Evans ahead of free agency, keeping two key pieces of their offense in tact. Mayfield is coming off the best fantasy season of his career, posting a 4044-28-10 line while playing all 17 games. However, those numbers are mid-level QB2 value in a league with plenty of rushing quarterbacks.


Mike Evans sticking in Tampa Bay
2-year, $35M guaranteed
By: Mike Krueger | Mon Mar 4, 9:10 am

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Still a Buc: Mike Evans and the #Buccaneers have agreed to terms on a two-year deal to avoid free agency and keep him in Tampa, per his agents @DerykGilmore and Darren Jones. From the seventh pick in 2014 to potentially the Hall of Fame, Evans might do it all in a Bucs uniform. (Mike Garafolo on X)

FFToday's Take: Evan's two-year deal includes $35 million guaranteed. He was the top wide receiver on the free agent market which includes the likes of Tee Higgins, Michael Pittman Jr. and Calvin Ridley. Evans is coming of his best fantasy season since 2018, posting a 79-1255-13 line. The Bucs will now focus on getting Baker Mayfield re-signed as well.


Chris Godwin working primarily from the slot in 2024
New OC envisions Godwin in Cooper Kupp role
By: Mike Krueger | Tue Feb 6, 1:04 pm

Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Bucs OC Liam Coen says he sees Chris Godwin moving back inside in the slot position. The Bucs got away from that a year ago thinking it may preserve him from a health standpoint. But he will be back in his old position in 2024. (Rick Stroud on X)

FFToday's Take: Despite reaching 1000 receiving yards, Godwin had a quiet 2023 season with just three TDs (one rushing) and two 100-yard receiving games on 83 receptions. We could see his catch totals increase with former Rams' OC Coen directing the offense. Mike Evans is a free agent and whether or not he returns to Tampa remains to be seen.
