Don't Reach for O.J. Howard in Fantasy Football Drafts

Many people are ready for an O.J. Howard breakout in 2019, but has his fantasy value exceeded the price people should be paying?

It's fair to say that, after two seasons in the NFL, Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end O.J. Howard hasn't been a rip-roaring success as a pro. He's far from a failure, of course, but his production has left many -- fantasy football team owners included -- wanting more. However, Howard is far from the first tight end to start his NFL career off slowly.

There is a fair amount of optimism surrounding the Buccaneers in general, and Howard in particular, heading into the 2019 season.
