BALLER MOVE: Start in Superflex Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB21
ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield has been one of the biggest fantasy football surprises this season. The former Oklahoma star is the QB2 for the year, averaging 23.1 fantasy points per game. The veteran has averaged 2.6 passing touchdowns per game, totaling two or more in 75% of the contests. Furthermore, he has had at least three passing touchdowns in four consecutive games.
Mayfield leads the NFL in passing touchdowns. He ranks second in passing yards and third in completion rate. The veteran has been outstanding despite losing his top two wide receivers. Last week, Mayfield had 330 passing yards, three touchdowns, and 22.3 fantasy points against the Atlanta Falcons despite missing Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (ankle).
SUPERSTAR: Bucs QB Baker Mayfield leads the NFL with 21 touchdowns, ranks 2nd in yards, and 3rd in completion rate — the first to do so in 7 years.

Unfortunately, the veteran faces a talented Kansas City Chiefs defense this week. They have held quarterbacks to one or fewer passing touchdowns in over half of their games this year.
Fantasy players should avoid starting Mayfield in single-quarterback leagues.
