Baker Mayfield Looks To Stay Hot

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (ribs, ankle) is good to go ahead of Sunday's playoff game against the Detroit Lions. Mayfield is coming into this game dealing with multiple nagging injuries, but appears ready to go. Last weekend, Mayfield threw for 337 yards and three touchdowns in the win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The biggest fear for fantasy managers is that Mayfield isn't at 100 percent health yet. He was able to get the job done against the shaky Eagles defense. However, Mayfield could have a tougher time finding success against the Lions this weekend. That being said, Mayfield will be a cheap DFS option, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect another 300-yard performance.

Chase Edmonds To Be Questionable For Sunday's Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said that running back Chase Edmonds (toe) will be questionable for the Divisional Round of the playoffs on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. After not practicing on Wednesday and Thursday, Edmonds returned to practice on Friday and at least has a chance to suit up against Detroit. Even if the 27-year-old is cleared to play this weekend, he's not much of an option for fantasy lineups in DFS as the clear backup to starter Rachaad White. Edmonds didn't have a single game during the regular season with double-digit half-PPR points. In total, he had 49 carries for 176 yards and no touchdowns. If Edmonds is unable to play against the Lions, rookie Sean Tucker would have a bigger role as the No. 2 behind White in an offense that prefers to throw the ball.

Cade Otton Likely To Regress Versus Lions

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton was the primary pass-catcher for this offense during last weekend's win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Otton hauled in eight of his 11 targets for 89 yards in the win. Quarterback Baker Mayfield (ribs, ankle) was still somewhat immobile, so he leaned on the short routes to Otton. This gameplan of getting the ball out quick to Otton worked against the shaky Eagles defense. However, the Bucs are unlikely to have the same success against the Detroit Lions defense. Before this game, Otton had been held to two receptions or less in six straight games. DFS players shouldn't expect another eight-catch performance from Otton this weekend.

Trey Palmer A Risky DFS Option

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer has found the end zone in two of his last three games. Last week, Palmer hauled in one of his two targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The rookie wideout was quiet in the game outside of his huge score. It's worth noting that Palmer has 40 receiving yards or more in three of his last four games. However, he's still the third option on this offense behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin (knee) who is currently on the injury report. If Godwin sits, Palmer would likely see a bigger role in the offense. Otherwise, Palmer will likely remain an afterthought as he only has three total receptions in his last two games.

Mike Evans Needs Bounce-Back Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans wasn't able to make much of an impact during last week's playoff victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. The veteran wideout hauled in three of his seven targets for 48 yards in the win. Evans is normally the deep threat option for this offense, but was held in check by defensive back Darius Slay. Instead, Evans watched David Moore, Trey Palmer, and Chris Godwin all score long touchdowns. The expectation is that Evans will remain an important piece to the passing game. Evans is looking like a boom-or-bust DFS option for the upcoming Divisional Round matchup against the Detroit Lions.
