Fantasy football 2021: Tampa Bay Buccaneers preview

Knowledge is power and the greatest asset you can acquire in order to compete for a fantasy football championship.

Here's your 2021 preview of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the 16th of 32 team profiles during draft season:

— 2021 Fantasy MVP: Chris Godwin, WR

Godwin (ADP: 42) is the top wide receiver to target in this offense, but he's actually being drafted after Mike Evans (ADP: 33). Godwin's per 16 game averages the last two seasons: 93 receptions (126 targets), 1,337 yards and 10 touchdowns.

— 2021 Fantasy Rookie to watch: Kyle Trask, QB

Something went terribly wrong if we see Trask under center this season, but he's an obvious flier in dynasty leagues and it wouldn't hurt to check in on his development from time to time.

— 2021 Fantasy Sleeper: Giovani Bernard, RB

Bernard (ADP: 186) will likely be used similar to how James White was utilized during Tom Brady's time in New England, which should excite folks. There's late-round value here, especially in PPR formats.

— 2021 Fantasy Bust: Mike Evans, WR

A career-high 13 touchdowns saved Evans' season a year ago. He set a career-low in targets (109), had his third-fewest receptions (70) and second-fewest yards (1,006). It's highly-unlikely he'll maintain last year's touchdown rate and I'd rather target Godwin (WR15) or Antonio Brown (WR38) to invest in this pass game.
