Mike Evans

[rowdystylz1 6]

Mike Evans is on waivers.  I think he was dropped a while ago (no IR) and not sure anybody has really noticed. What % FAAB do spend on him tonight?  Must grab right?

[frijoles 0]

I would say so. I’ve been holding on to him since he went out in hopes he would return for the playoffs. I’ve been hunting wrs on waivers since he went down and there’s not much in terms of consistency out there. It’s hard to know if there will be someone else worth spending serious faab on, so I would put down quite a bit. Maybe 20%?

Whatever you have to pay....wavers are bare....

[rowdystylz1 6]

Agreed. Bare bones out there on the wire.  At the very least i block the rest of the league. I think hes still alpha, prob not 1st game back, but he would be a sexy Flex  for my playoff run perhaps. Thx

I was lucky enough to add him last Sunday before games started, hoping to clinch the #1 seed & the 1st round bye. Was able to get it so this weekend doesn’t matter & I’m off week 15. I read on Saturday he was going to get it scanned to see if he was ready to start practicing. I didn’t expect him to play this Sunday against the Saints with a game 4 days later on Thursday against the Falcons. But, 2 straight limited practices has me wondering!

If you have the chance to pick up a HOFr for your playoff run, do whatever it takes!

I def dont want to assume the others are sleeping. Gonna bulk up my current bid.

I wouldn’t Spend to much, I don’t think he’s the Alpha, They have three very good WRs.  Before his injury he was only the second highest scoring wr on the Bucs, and now Godwin is back, and so is Bucky.

May as well unload your FAAB. It's the playoffs. You may not be able to use it again

I think he’s worth the extra FAAB, especially for a playoff run. With all of Godwin’s issues & Egbuka fading after a hot start, Evans very well could have a resurgence. We already know Mayfield loves him in the red zone.

So was it enough?

Evans has issues, not playing this week.

I expect him to be activated for Thursday FWIW

Any thoughts on if I should start Emeka Egbuka or Zay Flowers this week? I need a win badly for one of my 2 matchups to make the playoffs.

Tough decision to be made here, Jackson is playing, I’ll take Flowers.  But it’s so close, I think it’s even.

Absolutely. We are at the end of the Fantasy season. Use it or lose it. I'd flex Evans in a playoff game

possibly, weepy. 

but his sample size from this season is so small. we never got to see him get in a groove with Egbuka, playing their respective roles. Godwin has now played more games and has not been much of anything. I don't really think he is right. Egbuka has also basically been a bust since week 5. 

No clue what to expect from Evans, after missing so many games. What I do know is he was getting 8+ targets per game before the injury and had double digit fantasy points in each healthy game, weeks 1-3. 

he is absolutely worth a spot on rosters heading into the fantasy postseason. 

[weepaws 3,386]

I own Evans on both my ppr, and non, i was disappointed with his performance when the season started, Evans return will help Egbuka like it helped him when the season started, I think Godwin isn’t right, he’s missed a lot of games, he’s going to get into game shape more as he plays in more games. 

Happy to have Evans back, but I’m not expected the performances we have seen from him going forward.
