Scouting report

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Carolina Panthers

Mike Evans continued his strong season last week by catching 7-of-10 targets for 88 yards and a touchdown. He's now scored in 4-of-6 games this season, and the fact he's still getting double-digit targets in this offense is incredible.

He does get a tougher matchup this week against Carolina, though. The Panthers' numbers are a bit skewed due to last week when the Bears only had one completion to a receiver. Overall, Carolina has been tough, but not stingy. Evans should be just fine, and should be viewed as a strong WR1 this week.

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Buffalo Bills

Mike Evans continued his solid season last week with a season-high 95 yards. He also scored a touchdown. He only finished with 3 receptions, but he did lead the team in targets with 8. Evans hasn't had a monster game yet, but he's been pretty consistent, only going under 50 yards once this season (49) and he has scored in half of his games.

He could struggle a bit this week, though, as he gets a tough matchup against the Bills. Receivers have only scored twice all season on this defense, and they haven't had many yards on them, either.

Despite the tough matchup, Evans should still be viewed as a WR1 this week. He's going to get targets, and he's a good enough playmaker to take advantage most weeks.

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Arizona Cardinals

Mike Evans was a bit of a letdown last week as he finished with 5 catches for 49 yards as Jameis Winston threw for over 300 yards. We're not too worried about Evans' struggles because he's still getting targets, but it's a bit surprising we haven't seen him with a 100-yard game this season considering how well Winston has been playing.

The good news for Evans is he gets another favorable matchup this week against the Cardinals. Arizona is allowing the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing wideouts this season, and with the Bucs playing well on offense, we expect Evans to finish with solid numbers. Evans should be viewed as a strong WR1 this week.

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. New England Patriots

Mike Evans has received double-digit targets in back-to-back games (had 9 in his first game) and has delivered with solid production. He hasn't had a monster game yet as he's been held under 100 yards each week, but two touchdowns in three games is nothing to complain about.

Evans has a good chance of eclipsing that 100-yard mark this week as he gets a favorable matchup against the Patriots. The Pats have allowed the most yards and touchdowns (tied with the Titans) to opposing receivers this season.

Evans is a WR1 pretty much every week, but given the great matchup, he gets an added boost. On paper, he has the chance to be the top wideout this week.

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. New York Giants

Mike Evans didn't wow anyone last week, but he played just fine, catching 7 passes for 67 yards. He led the team with 12 targets, but struggled a bit with elite CB Xavier Rhodes covering him for most of the game.

He could struggle a bit again this week in a tough matchup against the Giants. New York has allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing wideouts this season, and a big factor of that is the fact the Giants have only given up one touchdown to a receiver.

Even with the tough matchup, Evans should still be viewed as a WR1. He'll likely continue to see double-digit targets, which automatically makes him an attractive option.

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Minnesota Vikings

Jameis Winston had an off-game last week, but it didn't hurt Mike Evans. The Pro Bowl receiver finished with 93 yards and a touchdown on 7 receptions and a team-high 9 targets.

Unfortunately, Evans draws a tough matchup this week against Xavier Rhodes and the Vikings. Rhodes is known for shutting down top receivers, so don't be surprised if Evans struggles this week.

But even with the poor matchup, Evans should be viewed as a WR1. He's too talented to sit and is always a threat to score in the red zone.

TB WR Mike Evans - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. Chicago Bears

Mike Evans was heavily targeted by Jameis Winston in the preseason on limited snaps. It's clear Winston will continue to go to his Pro Bowl receiver, and why not? Evans has proven he's a reliable option and a very dangerous weapon.

DeSean Jackson's presence should only help Evans as it takes some of the pressure off of him from defenders. He gets a great matchup this week against the Bears, and we expect him to continue his dominance against defenders. Evans should be viewed as a strong WR1 option vs. Chicago.
