Trends

"McMillan enters his second NFL season as a bit of a tricky evaluation. The 2024 third-round pick opened his rookie season as a de facto full-time player, but was rarely targeted behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. He was finally featured during the final five regular-season games and exploded for a league-high seven TD catches (at least one in all five outings) and 19.8 fantasy PPG (at least 16.7 points in all five). Of course, Godwin was out during that stretch and, even if he misses some time in 2025, the team drafted Emeka Egbuka in the first round of April's draft. Consistent fantasy production will be hard for McMillan to find with Evans, Godwin and Egbuka in the mix, not to mention that he's expected to miss a big chunk of the season due to injury."

"McMillan stepped up in a critical game for the Buccaneers, co-leading the team in receptions while setting the pace in receiving yards and targets. The second-year wideout's yardage tally was also a new career high, and it came in only his third game following a very delayed season debut due to a serious neck injury. McMillan could play a key role again in a Week 18 home matchup against the Panthers that will decide the NFC South title, as well as whether Tampa Bay makes the postseason."
