Contract Standoff and Roster Turnover Cast Shadow on Productive Buccaneers Quarterback
Baker Mayfield enters his contract year in a standoff with the Buccaneers, setting a training camp extension deadline. While highly productive in Tampa Bay, his supporting cast changes after losing Mike Evans. Still, Mayfield remains confident in a healthy Chris Godwin and a receiving group featuring rookie Ted Hurst.
Our models project Mayfield to pass for 3,777 yards and 26 touchdowns, adding 327 yards on the ground. This represents a solid baseline, though below his career-best 2024 season. He remains a reliable distributor alongside tight end Cade Otton and wideout Jalen McMillan.
In draft leagues, Mayfield's ADP has settled near 136 after a brief spike into the mid-90s, reflecting market caution over his contract and target changes. At this late-round cost, our projections see him as a premier value pick who offers low-end starter capability with minimal investment risk.

Elite Weapon Addition Spikes Dual-Threat Quarterback Into Premium Value Territory
Coming off a sensational sophomore campaign with 4,688 passing yards and 32 touchdowns, Maye is primed for another massive year. The Patriots completely transformed his ceiling by trading for elite wideout A.J. Brown, who instantly joins a pass-catching group featuring Romeo Doubs, DeMario Douglas, and veteran tight end Hunter Henry.
Maye's offseason development has drawn rave reviews from camp, with coaches noting he has leveled up his command of the offense. Our projections slate him for 3,950 passing yards and 28 touchdowns. His high-end rushing ability, projected at 452 yards and four scores, gives him an incredibly safe weekly floor.
Draft markets have reacted wildly to the Patriots' offensive upgrades. His ADP spiked into the third round before settling into a more reasonable fifth-round cost. At this current price, he represents a monumental value steal in 1.0 PPR formats, especially given his elite dual-threat profile and upgraded arsenal of perimeter weapons.
