WR Mike Evans, TB (3 Viewers)

[zamboni]

It’s also just a report by Jeremy Fowler, who may be plugged in, but no one knows for sure what the game plan is and the Bucs’ coaches certainly aren’t going to divulge it.

Et tu, Jeremy?

 

[Manster]

Big Mike!

 

[FarFromHome]

Mike quickly reminded the wr room who the alpha is. Welcome back buddy.

242 a game for 3 games for a 1000

 

[LionOfGosforth]

I think I might just plug him in next week @ Panthers.

Doesn’t need to play 90% of the snaps to produce. Even if he plays half the snaps and has a high target to route run rate, that could lead to a solid game.

Final tally was 12 targets on 38 snaps (55% snap rate)

Moral of the story: don’t always listen to the beat writers

 

[Footballdaz]

Between Evans, McLaurin and Judkins for final flex. Leaning McLaurin currently.

QJ might get 35 carries in that game

They will be playing from behind,so highly doubt it
It's supposed to be very cold that's it,no wind,snow,rain etc.
Ya can still throw when just cold.

Exactly. Does any WR play 100% of snaps in a game?

Godwin did play 96% but probably as much for his blocking than anything.

Actually, the beat writer was accurate. He didn't play the full complement of snaps, but when he was out there they targeted him heavily.

I said before the game that beat report was a Rohrschach test. You could interpret it to support whatever your pre-existing belief was

Fair point - although based on the tweet/ interview citing “snap count” and “only important downs”, I don’t think most expected a 55% snap count. Took a bit of gumption to take a chance that he’d be incorporated as much as he was last night.

 

[Judge Smails]

Should have unloaded in FAAB. Since it was upper body vs lower I had zero concerns about him being 100% and fresh. Looks explosive

I read that report as saying they would target him in the red zone (which they did on 1st and goal from the 1, though he didn't catch it) and I thought that alone made him worth a gamble. The deep passes were a pleasant surprise

 

[TVT 0 N S T A]

This guy is a league winner and I missed the boat.

I've had my back against the wall with a short bench and 0 IR spots... I had to roster Lamb through injury and play whack-a-mole with my WR's all year (Rome Odunze & Ladd McConkey owner).

Sometimes, you have to play the short game to even get to the long game. I am in the playoffs but would feel a lot better with Evans over McConkey but prior to last night's game - they both had their own flaws... I like Mike Evans >>>>>>>>>> McConkey for the remaining weeks of fantasy. He is a fringe WR1 with his TD upside.

 

[LionOfGosforth]

I sure hope to roll out Chase, Rice and Evans in championship week, the irony not lost on me that i'd have a much better chance of making it if I just trusted Evans enough to use him last night.

 

[Kiddnets]

He did not look like a guy who is ready to retire - I think hes back next year

 

[kyoun1e]

I'm just here to say how excited I am with Evans production vs. expectations...

...but also how depressed I am that this production didn't match ******** K. Pitts last night.

 

[Desert_Power]

Didn't start him in favor of Sutton/Watson/Jefferson. He looks back as the alpha WR on a team that needs to win.

 

[Footballdaz]

Can't believe I snoozed on Evans after he broke collar bone.
A player like him I usually scoop up after being dropped and put on ir.
I guess with Embukas explosion to start the year,kinda made me forget Abt him n think he wouldn't be back in time for fantasy playoffs.

And I probably wouldn't of started him first game back.

Next game will be the Godwin/Embukas show if I did start him and get 4/40 out of him..

Isn't this game fun.

 

[KickinT]

Didn’t start him either. No guts, no glory. This game is insanely fun.

I have Chase, Rice, Evans, and Jamo Williams.

I started Jamo.

I hope I don’t regret it.
