The Buccaneers went just 7-9 last season during Jameis Winston’s historically bizarre season in which he threw for 5,109 yards, 33 touchdowns and 30 interceptions. While the former Heisman Trophy winner had hoped to secure a long-term contract from the Bucs for his 2019 performance, the team opted instead to let him walk after they signed Tom Brady to take over the offense.
While Brady is almost guaranteed to find some form of success in an offense that features both Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, not to mention All-Pro tight end Rob Gronkowski, many are wondering if the six-time Super Bowl champion will be the fantasy football star they are hoping he will be.
Bucs writer Greg Auman of The Athletic recently joined The Athletic‘s fantasy football podcast to discuss that and other topics. Here’s a snippet on his thoughts about Brady.
Tom Brady may be an upgrade for the Buccaneers in real life, but Jameis Winston was fantasy gold last year. Could Brady hurt the fantasy bottom line for Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. We discussed that, and more, with @gregauman on this episode of Fantasy Football in 15. https://t.co/SgzqFQ0Cvu
