Ah! It’s that time of year again! Round up the crew, fire up the grill, get the cooler filled with beer because it’s fantasy football season! Here we look at five Buccaneers that you and your league foes should be fighting over on draft day.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers have not been a high priority for fantasy GMs over the past few seasons. Aside from Doug Martin, Jameis Winston and Mike Evans‘ breakout rookie seasons and the ever consistent Vincent Jackson, Bucs players have been viewed as sleepers, late round bench players, or waiver wire targets. It’s not often you go into your draft and say “I gotta get this Buc”.

That needs to change this season.

Today, we look at five Buccaneers that you should target heading into your draft. No first rounders – those are reserved for the Adrian Petersons, Antonio Browns, Le’Veon Bells, and Dez Bryants of the world. But come round two and into those late round sleepers, these Buccaneers can make you look like a genius as you strive for fantasy football glory.

We will start with the late rounds and work our way to the top as you begin all your prep, research, big board, and strategy.

(For the purpose of this, we will use standard scoring, not PPR)
