Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans is entering the final year of his two-year, $41 million deal in 2025, and The Athletic's Dan Pompei writes that the team could have a difficult time retaining the future Hall of Famer beyond this season, especially at a similar price to what they just re-signed Chris Godwin at. Despite being close to turning 32 years old, Evans hasn't shown signs of slowing down, posting 1,000 yards receiving in 2024 for the 11th straight season while also scoring 11 touchdowns. Tampa certainly doesn't want to lose one of the greatest players in franchise history who is also highly respected in the locker room, but it remains to be seen how this will play out following the 2025 season after they took wideout Emeka Egbuka in the first round this year. For fantasy purposes, Evans is a high-end WR2.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle appears to be plenty motivated in 2025 after the offense took a step back in 2024, with Waddle falling short of a fourth straight 1,000-yard season. Waddle finished with 744 yards and two touchdowns on 58 catches, all career-lows. "After watching the film, definitely a lot of hand eye (coordination) -- I feel like I'm trying to move without the ball too much," he said. "And just the simple things, just timing, getting smoother in and out of my routes. Pretty much that," Waddle said. The 26-year-old has also been improving his chemistry with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. A bounce-back campaign in 2025 is certainly possible for the speedy Waddle, but unfortunately his fantasy value is tied to the injury-prone Tagovailoa and an offense that was a shell of its former self last year. RotoBaller has Waddle ranked as the WR28.
