BALLER MOVE: Start in All Formats
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1
ANALYSIS: There's a real chance that Cade Otton will finish this week as a top-5 play at his position. The Bucs lost both Mike Evans and Chris Godwin last week in their game against Baltimore, which led to Otton finishing with a season-high eight catches on ten targets for 80 yards.

Tampa is now left with Trey Palmer, Sterling Shepard, and Jalen McMillan as their remaining receivers. Meanwhile, Otton played 98% of the snaps last week and has proven to be the most reliable pass catcher of that group.
Expect Baker Mayfield to hone in on his tight end this week as the Bucs take on their division-rival Falcons. Otton caught three passes for 44 yards in Tampa's first meeting with Atlanta, but we should expect him to be more heavily targeted this time around.
Otton is a decent bet for a touchdown, too, as he has at least one red zone target in each of his last six games. He has just one TD on the season, but without Godwin and Evans on the field, he is the most likely receiver to get those high-value targets.
