Jalen McMillan appreciation post

Since the Bucs' Week 11 BYE, Jalen McMillan totalled 27 receptions on 36 targets (75% catch rate), 352 yards (13 YPR), and 7 TDs (with a TD in 5 consecutive games). During this stretch, he averaged 13.17 fantasy points (half PPR), which includes his week 12 and 13 duds in which he scored just 1.6 and 3.5 fantasy points.

Extrapolating to 17 games, this would be 87 targets, 66 receptions, 855 yards, and 17 TDs. The TD rate isn't sustainable, but still a fantastic stretch for a third round rookie.

He averaged 16.9 fantasy points in the fantasy playoffs and dropped 20.5 in championship week.

It will be interesting to see what happens with Godwin, but McMillan justified the off-season hype and can hopefully be a dynasty WR2/3 with upside in the near future.
