Otton has stepped up when given the opportunity, but with plenty of other mouths to feed in Tampa Bay's passing game, he usually takes a back seat when injuries don't force the matter. He had 59 catches for 600 yards and four TDs last season, with nearly half of that production coming in a three-game stretch Weeks 7-9 when the Buccaneers dealt with injuries to wide receivers Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Both veteran wideouts are still around, and Jalen McMillan also seems to have leapfrogged Otton after catching seven TDs in the last five games of his rookie regular season. As if that weren't enough target competition, Tampa Bay drafted rookie WR Emeka Egbuka in the first round this spring. Otton is locked in as Tampa Bay's top tight end after raising his yardage total in each NFL season -- from 391 to 455 to 600 -- but he has yet to score more than four TDs in a campaign and doesn't figure to be prioritized in an offense that's loaded with better options at WR and RB.
