Jalen McMillan

22-Year-Old Wide ReceiverWR
2024 Fantasy Outlook
McMillan was very productive at Washington. However, a knee injury last year cost the receiver about two months, and his draft stock may have tumbled as a result. With the No. 92 pick in the draft, the Buccaneers added the 6-foot-1, 197-pound receiver. The Tampa Bay coaching staff has talked about moving Chris Godwin the slot after the veteran played often on the outside last year. Should that happen, McMillan may immediately see an outside receiver role when the Buccaneers go to three-receiver sets. Last season, Trey Palmer was the No. 3 receiver, though Palmer is primarily a slot player. McMillan would potentially benefit from the attention that defenses must give to Mike Evans and Godwin. Overall, seeing regular target volume may be an issue for the rookie, but McMillan landed in an excellent spot where he could be productive. Read Past Outlooks
Tampa adds third-round wideout
WRTampa Bay Buccaneers
April 26, 2024
The Buccaneers selected McMillan in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 92nd overall.
ANALYSIS
McMillan might not have as much hype as former Washington teammate Rome Odunze or even Ja'Lynn Polk, but McMillan was about as productive as Odunze and was more productive than Polk prior to McMillan missing roughly two months with a knee injury in 2023. In other words, if McMillan never got hurt, then Polk might not have been drafted ahead of the former. McMillan (6-foot-1, 197 pounds) demonstrated his skill set by producing alongside the likes of Odunze and Polk in college, and his solid combine performance proved the NFL viability of his athleticism (4.47-second 40, 37-inch vertical). Trey Palmer should not be in the WR3 role much longer for Tampa.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be Bucs' WR3
WRTampa Bay Buccaneers
May 4, 2024
Jenna Laine of ESPN.com believes that McMillan has a good chance at starting as the third wide receiver behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin.
ANALYSIS
The Buccaneers took McMillan late in the third round in the 2024 NFL Draft, 92nd overall. He played alongside ninth overall pick Rome Odunze and second-round pick Ja'Lynn Polk in Washington. McMillan should be able to reprise a similar role in Tampa Bay, especially with Godwin set to move back into the slot position while Evans assumes the WR1 role. McMillan's best season with the Huskies was in 2022, when he caught 79 passes for 1,098 yards and nine touchdowns.
