Rob Gronkowski, Scotty Miller Good To Go

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski (shoulder) and wide receiver Scotty Miller (hip, groin) are both good to go for Monday night against the Giants. Both Gronkowski and Miller were limited on Thursday and Friday of this week, though they have no injury designations after both were full participants on Saturday. Without Chris Godwin […]

Buccaneers Defense An Elite Option In Week 8

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense has been one of the best options for fantasy this year. They get their juiciest matchup of the year in Week 8 against the Giants, who have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing defenses. The Giants' offensive line ranks dead-last in adjusted sack rate while Tampa Bay's defensive front […]

Ryan Succop A Good Play Against Giants

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop makes for a good play in a Week 8 matchup against the New York Giants. Succop has made at least five kicks in four straight games and has at least five extra points in two straight. There's no reason to doubt Tampa Bay's offense against the Giants, even though […]

Rob Gronkowski A Solid Starting Option

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski faces a semi-tough matchup in Week 8 against the Giants. Gronkowski has at least six targets and 50 yards receiving in each of his last three contests and has scored a touchdown in two straight games. The Giants are not the soft spot they used to be for […]

Tyler Johnson Has Some Sleeper Appeal

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tyler Johnson will take the place of the injured Chris Godwin (finger) in Week 8 against the Giants. Johnson got the start in Week 5, playing a season-high 79 percent of the snaps and putting up a 4-61-0 line. With Brady currently rolling, it's fair to consider starting a player […]

Scotty Miller A Risky Play

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Scotty Miller could have a chance at more targets in Week 8 without Chris Godwin (finger) on the field. Miller has started two games without Godwin, producing a 2-11-0 line in Week 2 and a 5-83-1 line in Week 4. Brady certainly seems to trust him, which bodes well for […]

Mike Evans Should See More Opportunities In Week 8

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans should see an increased target share without teammate Chris Godwin (finger) in Week 8. Evans has averaged nine targets per game in three starts without a healthy Godwin and has delivered WR2 numbers or better in all three of those contests. The matchup will be tough this week- […]

Leonard Fournette A Good Flex Play With Upside

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette gets the Giants in Week 8 fresh off of leading his team's backfield in touches. Fournette played a season-high 56 percent of the snaps en route to 97 scrimmage yards on 17 touches back in Week 7. He'll face a Giants Defense that has allowed the 10th-most fantasy […]

Ronald Jones II A Good Play In Week 8

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II gets a good matchup against the Giants on Monday Night Football. Jones II ran wild in the absence of Leonard Fournette, picking up over 100 yards rushing in three consecutive games while handling at least 20 touches in each contest. However, Fournette returned healthy last week and […]

Tom Brady A Strong Start Against Giants

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is on a roll heading into a Week 8 matchup with the Giants. After a slow start to the season, Brady has now thrown for 1,454 passing yards with 15 touchdowns and just one interception in his last five contests. The Giants have been a pleasant surprise against opposing […]

Chris Godwin's Timetable Up In The Air

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians said that wide receiver Chris Godwin (finger) could be back in Week 9, but the team still doesn't know when he'll return. "I think it's very optimistic that he'll be back in a week, but it could be possible. We don't know, really, how long. Again, that's why […]

What to Do With Mike Evans

So, Mike Evans. Perhaps the most frustrating wide receiver in fantasy football right now, Evans has scored six touchdowns this season. But in seven games, he's finished with two or fewer receptions four times and most notably has done a complete vanishing act in the games where he shared the field with Chris Godwin, averaging […]

How Much Attention Should We Give WR/CB Matchups?

Depending on who you ask, you will get widely varying answers.
