2023 Outlook


The 2023 off-season started with the retirement of QB Tom Brady and a team that was about 55 million over the cap. Enter… Baker Mayfield. A quarterback competition will likely be the scenario as Baker Mayfield tries to beat out Kyle Trask for the starting job for the 2023 season.


With the Qb situation much different than in years past, look for a team that will have a hard time finding its groove. WRs Mike Evans and Chris Godwin will likely see a downtick in targets, receptions and yards. But its not all bad news for fantasy fans as the Bucs did not add a RB in the draft, opening up Rachaad White to see an increased workload.


This could be a season to forget down in Tampa.
