Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Vincent Jackson/Mike Evans (Wide Receivers): Jackson and Evans remain basically invisible without a competent quarterback throwing to them. Jackson has had some success this season but he is simply a boom or bust WR2 while Evans was supposed to be one of the best wide receivers this season. The matchup against the Redskins is favorable so either are worth a flex start.

Doug Martin (Running Back): Martin is coming off of his biggest game of the year and will look to build on that against a pretty decent run defense. Martin should find some holes like he usually does even against a stiffer defense than he is used too. If Martin explodes again he should be considered a matchup proof RB2.

 

Washington Redskins

Pierre Garcon (Wide Receiver): Garcon should have no trouble getting open against this Tampa Bay secondary. Garcon is the Redskins main wide receiver when they get into the red zone.

Alfred Morris/Matt Jones/Chris Thompson (Running Backs): Morris was supremely ineffective last week without Jones stealing carries from him. Morris will likely be relegated to change of pace duties and with Jones looking to return can see some of his carries pilfered yet again. Jones is practicing in full for week 7 so expect him to get a big workload. Jones and Morris are both low end flex starts with an RB2 upside.
