START ‘EM #3

player. 48. Projected Points: 10.4. Wide Receiver. Buccaneers. Mike Evans. 3

For everything I said about starting Jameis Winston, that can be applied towards starting Mike Evans, as he’s Winston’s favorite target. Evans has 19 receptions for 227 yards and two touchdowns on the year and fantasy owners are waiting for him to amass his week two total of 15 points.

With an absolutely dreadful Patriots secondary that can’t stop anything, Evans is going to have a hey day. The top receivers going up against the Patriots have done quite well and Evans is one of the most talented receivers in the game. He should easily be able to go for over 100 yards and grab a touchdown.

Similar to Brandin Cooks, fans are waiting for Mike Evans to get it going. He should have a good shot to get the breakout party going against a terrible Patriots defense.

Mike Evans is a must-start for week five.
