Emeka Egbuka vs David Montgomery

“Wide Receivers Emeka Egbuka (WR – TB) I’m hardly alone in expressing my optimism for a breakout campaign from Emeka Egbuka.”

“Take Emeka Egbuka , for example. His hot start last season will prove difficult to replicate. He plays 3 top-5 defenses against fantasy wideouts in the first 3 weeks of the season.”

“If health holds, his profile projects closer to a WR1 finish than his WR22 price tag suggests.” – Jacob Piccolo ( TrueRGM ) Emeka Egbuka (WR – TB) “ Emeka Egbuka already showed us that he has the ability to produce in the most elite way.”

“Emeka Egbuka (WR – TB) offers real top-five receiver upside if his hot start from last season extends across a full year, positioned as his team’s clear top receiver under a new offensive coordinator as long as the starting quarterback stays healthy.”

“While fantasy players should be excited about Emeka Egbuka , don’t forget about McMillan. Unfortunately, the former Washington star only played in the final four contests last season because of injury, averaging 7.5 PPR fantasy points per game.”

“Emeka Egbuka ‘s rookie season was a rollercoaster, but the underlying usage points toward a major Year 2 breakout in Tampa Bay. The former Ohio State standout earned elite target volume for a rookie and looked like a future star early in the season before injuries and shifting usage slowed his momentum late in the year (top-10 WR from Weeks 1-11). With Mike Evans gone, Egbuka is positioned for a much larger role in Zac Robinson’s offense.”

“Emeka Egbuka (WR – TB) Going as the WR18, 41st overall, the projections actually rate Egbuka even higher than that price suggests, stepping into a departed veteran’s role. His first six games last year came without two more established teammates healthy, and after that, the entire offense played through injuries for the rest of the season, muddying a clear read on his true talent level.”
