Peyton Barber Finds End Zone Sunday

Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber was serviceable Sunday against Carolina. With 45 yards and a touchdown, Barber had himself a low-end RB2 day. The only issue was his fumble at the goal-line. Barber was a sit for me this week but ended up being productive-ish. Barber is just so hard to trust but with the […...

Mike Evans Lackluster Against Panthers Again

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans had another dud outing against the Panthers. It seems as if they just have his number. Evans caught four passes on six targets for 48 yards. Much better than his prior one catch, 16-yard outing but still disappointing. Evans has an opportunity to make up for this performance next week […...

Jameis Winston Balls Out Sunday

Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston had another great outing in Week 13. Winston threw for 249 yards and two touchdowns with no picks while adding 48 yards rushing. This was just Winston's third QB1 performance of the season but it's hopefully a sign of things to come. The Buccaneers' QB has been rough to rely on […...

Tampa Bay's Defense Will be Ravaged on Sunday

The Buccaneers defense is bad. The Panthers' offense is good. The Panthers strengths are the Bucs' biggest weakness. Not only does Carolina have shifty receivers who can move all around the field, but their backfield tandem of Christian McCaffrey and Cam Newton are also individually capable of rushing for over 100 yards against them. Newton […...

Peyton Barber Belongs on the Bench Against Panthers

The Panthers boast a top-10 rush defense and prove to be troublesome for Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber. Barber has taken advantage of some great matchups in recent weeks like San Francisco and the Giants but will have his hands full at the line of scrimmage this weekend. Barber is a touchdown-dependent RB3 and should […...

Cameron Brate Has Best Matchup of Season in Week 13

Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate is in play across all leagues this Sunday. The Carolina Panthers have allowed the most fantasy points to tight ends this season and with the absence of O.J. Howard, Brate should eat. This game is bound to be won through the air and Tampa Bay leads the league in air […...

Chris Godwin and Adam Humphries in Line for More Targets Sunday

Buccaneers wide receivers Chris Godwin and Adam Humphries should be the beneficiaries of DeSean Jackson's absence this coming Sunday. Jackson (thumb) is dealing with a hand injury and could miss an extended period of time meaning more targets for Godwin and Humphries. Humphries has already had an extraordinary stretch of games in recent weeks while […...

Jameis Winston Hopes For Another Positive Outing Sunday

Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston was stellar last weekend against the 49ers. The only problem is that it was against the 49ers who might be the worst team in the NFL. Winston has an opportunity to make a case for himself as a franchise QB this Sunday against the Panthers if he plays well. The Panthers […...

Mike Evans Will Redeem Himself Against Carolina

The last time Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans faced the Panthers, he was targeted 10 times and caught just one pass for 16 yards. That is unacceptable for a player his size with his skills. It's essentially unfathomable and should be noted as an outlier on his stat sheet. There is nowhere to go but up […...

RotoBaller NBA Recap: KD Lights Up the Six

Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games. Thursday night featured a typical short slate of games with Toronto vs Golden State as the premier game of the. Although Golden State was down to just two all-stars for the night, the […...

Josh Donaldson's Value in Atlanta

The Bringer of Rain™ is taking his talents to the Dirty South™. The question on everyone's mind for the next few months should be how to value the 32-year old slugger who has struggled staying on the field these past two years. There's no way to know whether his lingering calf issue is behind him. […...

FAAB Bidding - Week 13 Waiver Wire Targets

As an addendum to our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, in this column we also present suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB). As a caveat, these prices do not by any means indicate how much […...

Peyton Barber Shows Signs of Life on Sunday

Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber found the end zone once again as he wrangled himself another decent fantasy outing. Barber rushed 18 times for 47 yards, caught two passes for 16 yards to go along with his touchdown, rewarding any brave owner who dared trek into starting him. Barber is an RB3 with minimal upside […...

Cameron Brate Finds End Zone Against 49ers

Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate became fantasy relevant once again due to O.J. Howard's leg injury. His bump in usage came immediately as he was able to score and add 24 yards on three catches Sunday against the 49ers. Brate is a talented TE who was buried on the depth chart by an even more […...

Adam Humphries Continues to Establish Himself

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Adam Humphries is approaching low-end WR2 value with his recent stretch of games. Humphries was the least noteworthy Tampa Bay pass-catcher coming into this season but now seems like one of the two most relevant. He ended Week 12 with six catches, 54 yards, and a touchdown. This was his […...

Mike Evans Cracks 100 Receiving Yards Again

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has had back-to-back solid outings. With 116 yards on six catches, Evans allowed concerned owners to breathe a sigh of relief knowing that last weekend's blow-up wasn't a fluke given his month-long skid earlier. Evans remains a top-tier WR option for owners and should continue to produce with Jameis Winston […...

Jameis Winston Shines Against Lowly 49ers

Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston played as well as anyone could ask of him in Week 12. Although the competition wasn't exactly stiff, he instilled hope by starting and finishing the game. Winston racked up 312 passing yards, 24 rushing yards, and two touchdowns Sunday and will look to keep up the good work next week […...

DeSean Jackson a Boom-or-Bust Flex Option for Week 12

Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson has been fairly quiet these past few weeks. However, knowing his track record, it is impossible to forget that he could go off any given Sunday. Jackson is due for a big game and this matchup against the lowly 49ers might be the perfect opportunity to shine. If your team […...

Mike Evans Should Stay Hot This Weekend

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans is a must-start per usual for Week 12. Evans had his best game in nearly a month last weekend and is primed for another great outing on Sunday. The 49ers are extremely weak in the secondary (outside of Richard Sherman's side) and should continually be exposed by the talented Buccaneers […...

Jameis Winston a Strong Start for Week 12

Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston is one of the better options at QB this coming Sunday against San Francisco. Winston has had a tumultuous season to date with a suspension and mid-game benching but he seems to be back on track. Last weekend against the Giants, Winston filled up the stat-sheet in the second half and […...

O.J. Howard Out For Season

Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard (ankle) has been placed on injured reserve due to foot and ankle injuries. This comes as a shock to most given that the initial diagnosis was fairly positive. Howard's second opinion today was only seen as precautionary but ended up in the bleakest manner. The stud sophomore TE was having […...

FAAB Biding: Week 12 Waiver Wire Adds

As an addendum to our famous waiver wire pickups list, and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, in this column we also present suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB). As a caveat, these prices do not by any means indicate how much […...

Jameis Winston Replaces Ryan Fitzpatrick Again

The Buccaneers quarterback carousel continues as Jameis Winston replaced Ryan Fitzpatrick mid-game against the Giants. Fitzpatrick threw three interceptions in the first half and was benched for Winston who proceeded to throw two touchdowns and fumble the ball for a touchdown into the end-zone. Although Winston brought his team close to victory, there has been […...

Adam Humphries Scores on Sunday

Buccaneers wide receiver Adam Humphries found the end-zone yet again in Week 11. Humphries has been a thorn in the side of Buccaneers skill position owners as it seems like he is the go-to target in up-tempo situations. Humphries is the Bucs' WR4 yet has produced more than Chris Godwin and DeSean Jackson in recent […...

DeSean Jackson Fails to Produce in Week 11

Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson had another poor outing this past Sunday. Jackson hauled in four catches for 38 yards on seven targets and failed to reach the end-zone yet again. This is Jackson's sixth game in a row without 100 yards and third straight without a touchdown. He has been fairly cold since the […...

O.J. Howard Solid in Loss

Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard had a decent game Sunday against the Giants. Howard posted five catches on six targets for 78 yards and left the game prior to the final drive as he was getting looked at by trainers. The Giants have been vulnerable against tight ends all year so it comes as no […...

Peyton Barber Breaks Loose Against Giants

Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber had a great game in New York. He rushed for 106 yards on 18 carries and found the end-zone. Barber also threw in two catches for four yards to PPR players as a cherry on top of a solid outing. These types of games have been few and far between […...

Mike Evans Rewards Owners Sunday

Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans had his first blow-up game in weeks on Sunday. There have been several instances this season where Evans has failed to return his third-round value but this last weekend against the Giants was not one of them. With six catches on seven targets, 120 yards, and a touchdown, owners everywhere […...

Is Tampa Bay's Defense Worse than the Giants' Offense?

On one hand, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers can't defend. On the other hand, the New York Giants can't offend (except their fans). Classic movable object meeting a stoppable force situation. The Giants added guard Jamon Brown last week and shored up their line enough to only give up one sack. With weapons all around the […...

Peyton Barber a Desperation RB3 at Best Sunday

Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber is bad. The fact that he's continually started in some leagues is astonishing. Regardless, he has a slight chance of producing against the Giants. With the absence of Damon "Snacks" Harrison, New York is extremely exposable up the gut (where Barber loves to run). Definitely would be hesitant to start […...
