Gotta bench Evans, right?

I thought I was buying low on Evans during his suspension week, but he’s done absolutely nothing since. In his last 5 games in my league, he’s averaged 8 points per game, equivalent to posting 4/40/0 each week.

 

I know there’s been some fluidity at QB in Tampa, but I can’t start him this week against a tough ATL secondary, right?

 

my other options:

Diggs vs CIN (equally as disappointing + even tougher matchup?)

Agholor vs NYG (Foles?)

Kupp @SEA

 

10-team PPR

I'm playing Evans over Diggs, but if Kyle Rudolph gets ruled out this weekend, it becomes a more interesting. But I still am going with Evans. I like taking players at home on Monday night - they tend to perform in the national spotlight (and the Bucs will have to throw). I know they are a hot mess and Winston has regressed, but Evans' career numbers vs. Atlanta are great. He went nuts at home in primetime last year too (11-150-2). His ceiling is way higher.

I keep expecting Evans to hit his ceiling. If he were to have done it even once in the second half of the season, I’d be a little more willing to put him out there. But he hasn’t topped 95 yards this season, and hasn’t even reached 14 fantasy points in a PPR league since week 8!

I have Diggs and Evans as well.. sitting Evans, picked up Westbrook.. I can’t let another week go by that he does nothing for me

I am starting Westbrook over Diggs too. My WRs are Mike Evans, Keenan Allen and Dede Westbrook. I'm planning to sit Sammy Watkins and Stefon Diggs. Trotting out Derrick Henry at Flex and may reconsider that in favor of Diggs. Not touching Watkins with Woods coming back - even with Woods gone, Watkins was seeing like 4, maybe 5 targets per game. I'd rather trust a guy getting more targets. And in Minnesota, Thielen gets all the targets, And Rudolph gets all the red zone looks. I guess I am just holding out hope that Evans and Winston get things right and do what they usually do vs. Atlanta in prime time. I can't imagine the Bucs won't make an effort to get Evans going, as whatever they've been trying to do lately hasn't worked. I'm not worried about Desmond Trufant, as he hasn't been shadowing WRs this season but playing strictly LCB. Trufant has been stellar though (#9 ranked by PFF grade). Tampa's overall regression this season is baffling.
