BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB15
ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield has been one of the biggest surprises over the first three weeks this season. The veteran is the QB6, averaging 19 fantasy points per game, totaling 18.8 or more in the first two contests.
Last week, the former No. 1 overall NFL Draft pick had a massive four passing touchdown and 29.7 fantasy point performance in Week 1. Unfortunately, Mayfield struggled in Week 3, totaling 163 passing yards, one touchdown, and only 8.5 fantasy points against the Denver Broncos.

However, fantasy players should feel confident starting the veteran quarterback in Week 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles have surrendered 16.4 or more fantasy points and two passing touchdowns to quarterbacks in two games this year. Furthermore, Mayfield has played well against Philadelphia during his time with Tampa Bay.
Fantasy players should view Mayfield as a low-end QB1/high-end QB2 with a safe floor this week.
