Despite low expectations in 2023, Baker's play secured the NFC South title. Key to their success was Evans. While a lifelong Buc, he is a top offseason priority, & faces an expiring deal in March.
While their current wideouts excel, considering a luxury move is wise. Evans thrived in 2018 under Ravens OC Monken & his red-zone impact would complement Flowers' agile style.
Both Higgins and Boyd, heading for free agency, may command high prices. With Chase's looming extension, the Bengals aim to win now, making Evans a potential star for Burrow & Co.
Texans' playoff loss exposed QB Stroud's need for support. While the O-line needs attention, Evans, an alpha No. 1, could boost Stroud's growth & relieve pressure on younger weapons.
Indy must pay Pittman Jr., but Steichen sees the value of a veteran pass target. The Colts overachieved this year & should have Richardson back in 2024, making them a sleeper contender.
Rice is a deep threat for Mahomes, but the Chiefs lacked a reliable WR corps. To rejuvenate the team, acquiring Evans, a proven WR, aligns with their SB aspirations in K.C.
